I have over 30 gems in Illi that don't register as gems, can't sell at the gemshop or jar with other like ones, all on the cheap side. So I finally assisted on the issue.
It was interesting, seems the lower level 1 holy recepticle gems (turn silver to gold) can be found in the treasure system. Bad news is you can't use them on anything worth more than their value. I'll do some testing on cheap boxes later.

The hairy black tarantula stands motionless while staring ahead. Its legs bend just enough to make it appear as if the tarantula were ready to pounce at something.
