B Papa, thanks I looked up how to measure a diamond and they had a chart with a visual pattern depending on the cut! well it could be around 3 or 4cts (on the safe side of error)!!!!!!!!! and it seems to me to be a French cut (early 1900's) very rare!!!
They don't cut them like that anymore unless custom cut. that is very expensive and the cutter would be of the most experienced!!!!! Finding out all this info and history stuff is an extra bonus of fun from the great hobby of
Metal Detecting!!!

Those are some freaking crazy finds! The stone looks like it has the "dead eye" cut. Something I never knew existed until I found my once in a life time find. Keep us posted on what you find out.
