 '''The DM:''' Well ... you have an almond-sized cairngorm stone in your hand.  You have no sage knowledge about gems, so from your perspective, it's a rock.  It has some value, but without expertise, you don't know WHAT value.  To learn the value, you need someone with expertise.  I can't give you the g.p. value because your character doesn't know what that is.\
