I wouldn't accept diamonds at all, as they're not money like gold is (and definitely not fungible in either sense of the arguments). "Diamonds are bullshit" and people only think they have value because of a De Beers marketing campaign in the early 1900s. https://priceonomics.com/post/45768546804/diamonds-are-bullshit https://priceonomics.com/post/45768546804/diamonds-are-bulls...

Well diamonds are fungible for any definition of the word you may choose and for the vast majority of the stones. Some of them are unique in that they're very large, very pure, have been worked on so much they are identifiable, have an IAG number engraved, etc. but the vast, vast majority of diamonds you can trade at any diamond shop in a very fungible manner, no questions asked.
