Actually, since you are the first bidder you can open with the starting bid @ 3 (unless you want to open at 4, in which case, let me know and I will correct it) ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Current leader: avoid3d Current bid: 3BTC

Do you have any better pictures, perhaps with lighting from underneath?
I can tell they are "deep-red", but I think the contrast between gem and background is making it seem darker than it actually is.

I agree and my macro lens has arrived! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I have added a couple of better pics and will be adding better pics for all of my gems all around. This new round doesn't have backlighting for the stones but do represent them fairly well. They are quite deep in color.

I definitely understand the Bitcoin liquidity side, so that's why I am making these stones available ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) My website has some information that helps explain how things work and when you add some faith in the value of Bitcoin, my business model is sound ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Everyone wins ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I'll bid 5, since the previous poster would win a tie-breaker at 4.
