{{Proposed deletion/dated
  |concern = As others have already pointed out in the talk page, this stone seems untraceable. The supposed Cervantes book doesn't seem to exist, I have tracked all mentions of the word 'diamante' in all Cervantes' works and no reference exists, it is not listed on Sotheby's website, the theft is not listed on any news site, there is no reference to it in texts on the Spanish royal collection, it is not listed in any of the books in my reference library.  Scam/vandal entry?  The only internet sources appear to be direct quotes from Wikipedia itself.
