According to the "Diamond Search Info" website 0.51 to 0.99 ct is worth $3038.
A diamond's size is described in millimeters (mm). These measurements are roughly comparable to carats. A 1-carat round diamond is typically 6.5 mm, while a 1.25-carat round diamond is 6.8 mm. For square-cut diamonds like princess, cushion, and asscher, 1-carat is typically 5.5 mm and a 1.25 carat is 6 mm.
When l think of a lot of diamonds I'd imagine there'd be kept in a posh velvet pouch, but now I know the size of one carat, my mind boggles... how big is the posh velvet pouch that holds 129,400 carats?
One other question... if one carat is worth $3038, how much is 129,400 carats worth?...
The answer via my trusty crusty Sharp calculator is $393,117,200 or 323 million,474 thousand and 711 British pound sterling...I must be on magic mushrooms!!!
Let's just say that only 10 per cent of the above was accurate...
