Answer: Akbar Shah

A pear-shaped diamond, it first came to notice during the Mughal Empire. The first inscription was "Shah Akbar, the Grand King, 1028 A.H." (Anno Hegirae). The second inscription read, "To the Lord of Two Worlds, 1039 A.H. Shah Jehan". It was reputedly a part of the original Peacock Throne. In 1886 a London merchant, George Blogg, purchased the diamond and recut it from 116 to 71.7 carats, which destroyed the inscriptions. Since then the location of the diamond has not been publicly known.

The Briolette of India is a colorless 90.38 carat diamond cut by Cartier circa 1910.

Answer: Gold had been declared invalid as coinage by FDR

Though it was given the value of $20, it was never to become legal tender as President Franklin D. Roosevelt had declared an executive order that gold coins were no longer to be used as money and would eventually be melted down. So the coin was worthless as actual money, but priceless as a collectible.

Like many priceless things, this coin has a 'history'. Supposedly stolen at the US mint, it eventually landed in King Farouk's pocket (Egypt), where it remained until 1952. It then vanished. Forty years later the coin emerged in the hands of Stephen Fenton, a British coin dealer. The US Secret Service seized the coin, and after lengthy negotiations it was sold at auction, with the proceeds split between the Secret Service and Fenton.
