Hi, Larry:

I totally agree with what you said because they simply made a lot of sense. The most interesting part is, if you read that link again, is the owner of these discs actually claimed they were all made of white Hetian (nephrite) jades which were confirmed with laboratory testing. I countered that I have never heard of any testing that could confirm Hetian jades. Now, if these are indeed serpentine jades, that would make a lot more sense, because most of them did look yellow on the surface and some had these greenish tint below the yellow surfaces. Yes, I strongly agree that such crystals look highly suspicious. I just want a jade expert like you who have been participating in many jade auctions to provide me with some confirmations to my suspicion.

I truly appreciate your invaluable opinions.

Bill
