Hi Perild,

The relevance of quoting the value for a solid opal of this type was only intended to point out the rarity of this type of opal and to give an indication of the doublet opal value ie: 1/10th of the solid opal value.

Sorry if it sounds confusing - it was not intended to confuse.

Regars,

Jenny
