“A cut ruby. It tips an arrow, and a jeweller would pay for it. Combat gems are retired (1.9): they give no bonus and no longer drop. Every sorted one was refunded at a Sorter roll plus its sell price, and every combat setting at its full price. The Gem Sorter buys an unsorted one for 1,500 tickets.”
