"Golden Eye" Diamond to be auctioned
http://news.yahoo.com/huge-diamond-f...180416234.html
A large yellow diamond —
known as the "Golden Eye"
— seized in a federal drug and money-laundering investigation in northeast Ohio is going on the auction block with the minimum starting bid set at $900,000.
The 43.51-carat diamond belonged to a northeast Ohio businessman who was convicted of money laundering and conspiracy.
snip-
The gem — about an inch long, almost ¾-inch wide and nearly ½-inch deep Not to be confused with crawley's "brown eye", which although larger by far, is auctioned off nightly, and men's rooms and truck stops all over the US.
