A '''bag full of gems''' is obtainable from [[Prospector Percy's Nugget Shop]] for 40 [[golden nugget]]s, from [[Belona]]'s [[Mining Guild Mineral Exchange]] for 20 [[unidentified minerals]], or from [[Dusuri's Star Shop]] for 300 [[stardust]]. Each bag contains an assortment of 40 noted [[uncut gem]]s.

The chances of an individual gem being an [[uncut onyx]] is 1/100,000,000, making the chance per bag approximately 1/2,500,000. In terms of probability, this makes it the rarest drop in the game.{{CiteVideo|author=Old School RuneScape|title=Ballista Combat Sneak Peek - Old School RuneScape Q&A|url=g-QYut-E2aU?t=2187|timestamp=36:26|date=21 April 2016|site=YouTube}}

The bags are exclusive to the stores they are bought from and therefore '''cannot''' be sold to another store in exchange for a different currency.

==Percentages==
''These probabilities are based on a sample of 21,237 bags full of gems, all of which were purchased from Dusuri's Star Shop.''

According to these estimates, a bag full of gems is worth {{Coins|{{Average drop value|mob=Bag full of gems|raw=y}}}} on average. The [[uncut onyx]] adds just {{coins|{{GEP|Uncut onyx}} / 2500000}} coins per bag due to its rarity.

On average, a player can expect 2,496.8 [[Crafting]] [[experience]] per bag if they were to cut all the gems. If a player were to process the cut gems into jewellery, the expected Crafting experience would increase to between 4,525 and 5,334 experience, depending on what jewellery is made.
