[QUOTE="Purpletiger, post: 562668, member: 18517"] Afternoon, My father passed away a couple of months ago, and in his stuff we have found many metal detecting related things that I'm unsure are of any value to anyone. Some of this is a couple of small jars of quite small sapphires. We have taken them to a jeweller who advised they are too small to cut. There's also one he labelled "spinel". So, my question is, is there anything else that these gemstones can be used for? Or are they only fit for the bin? Thanks in advance for any advice!
