A South African man is claiming to have discovered the world's largest diamond, but industry experts are sceptical about the find.
The light green, coconut-sized gemstone is sitting in a Johannesburg bank vault awaiting tests.
Property developer Brett Jolly, who runs the mining company which made the find, said he planned to have an accredited gemmologist verify within 48 hours whether the gem was a diamond.
