The dogs and I checked the yard and took a look at the neighbor's yards too. Nothing.

If it was in the garden the rototiller would have found it for certain.

Oh well.

I wonder if he owns the mineral rights? Many governments will own the land, and simply sell you the right to live on it. Everything else belongs to them.

A bit large for most women to wear on a ring. A necklace maybe. On a really big girl.

Probably just some potential coprolites.

The "Serendipity Sapphire" weighs 2.5 million carats.

The name honors the history of this island nation as Sri Lanka, previously named Ceylon, when British ruled, and was known as 'Serendip' in even older times.

And I predict the well digger and well owner will see zero dollars.

Did Zillow just revise the Z-Estimate for this property yet?

Wow. What a find! Guess he was the first person ever to win the Publishers’ Clearinghouse!

If I didn’t have bad luck, I’d have no luck at all.

“Found” in the yard of a third generation gem trader, what are the chances of that. We are not getting a straight story here, I think. This thing came from elsewhere.

I wonder if one could make a laser rod with sapphire, and what the properties would be...

The first thing you do when you find a treasure in your back yard is shut your mouth. So many times someone finds some stash of gold coins only for some government bureaucrat to confiscate it. This guy in Sri Lanka’s days are numbered. That place is so crooked the government is just going to eliminate him and seize the property.
