Reply to comment by westberry82 in TIL The largest diamond ever found was the Cullinan Diamond, which was discovered in South Africa in 1905. It weighed 3,106.75 carats (over 1.2 pounds) and was cut into nine separate stones, including the Great Star of Africa, which is the largest clear-cut diamond in the world at 530.2 carats. by mic3ttaa
Things like that are always so intangible. I had to inspect a Diebold facility and they had pallets of cash, thought never even crossed my mind taking it because it’s just seemed like a green block instead of $1 million dollars.
