What is the appraised value of the Hope Diamond?

In: Diamonds [Edit categories]

Answer:

Estimates vary, and of course it will never actually be sold, but it's probably worth between 200 and 250 million dollars. A similar stone without the famous pedigree would be worth only about a fourth of the value of the Hope diamond, or around 50 to 60 million dollars.
