If you have one for sale, it is worth whatever someone will pay you for it.

According to Jeffrey E. Post, mineralogist, National Museum of Natural History -- current owner of the Hope Diamond, in his blog, he indicates that the Hope Diamond is priceless.

In April 2013, "A stunning blue diamond (5.3 carats) broke a world record today, fetching a price of 6.2 million British pounds (about $9.6 million), or about $1.8 million per carat, according to auctioneer Bonhams."

This means that if ever available, a blue diamond the size of the Hope -- not the colour, but the ice-blue colour as above -- weighing in at 45.52 carats. could be purchased at auction, possibly, for at least £81.936 or more depending on the colour and clarity of the large blue diamond.
