A San Francisco company with ten million capital reportedly holds large diamonds a Koh i Noor style gem and a quart of small stones, supported by legends of pirates Indians and Aztecs. Caution is urged as the Bank of California appears heavily stocked with diamonds and the tale reads like a literary exaggeration.
