I don't know of any appraisers who will assign a value to rough stones. I would think the best person to assign a value to a rough stone would be a lapidary. Other than that you could just look for similar stones on eBay.

I wouldn't bother with the second two stones, neither one is gem quality. There's an important difference between corundum and ruby, and between a rock and a diamond.

As for the first two, you may want to find someone with gemological tools to ID and evaluate them. They don't look like jeremejevite to me, but who knows.

I agree with Bob on all 4 pieces.

It's cool you post pictures, but the ones I have seen are all very blurry, what are you using for a camera?
