027. More Magnificent Opals

It's not time to leave opals behind just yet! We've got More Magnificent Opals. Specifically, the very best of the best. The biggest, the rarest, the most beautiful; come and meet the cast: the Olympic and Aurora Australis, a pair of Fire & Flame Queens, a Black Prince, a Red Emperor, and a very impressive Halley... This is the pinnacle, the ultimate opals. Like so many epic gemstones, they each have their own tangled history: robberies, suicide, touring the world, million dollar auctions, and... changing the prehistoric fossil records? Yes. All this and more, on More Magnificent Opals.
