When the "yellow dot" appears in the "AGS/GIA Cert." it means that the store offers "in-house" certificates of authenticity. Please note that AGS/GIA certificates are offered only on "loose diamonds" that you select and place in the setting (such as when usingMondera's design your own ring tool). Preset diamonds do not generally include AGS/GIA certifications, so if you are looking for AGS/GIA certifications, you need to select a store that carries loose diamonds.
When the "yellow dot" appears in the "Dmd. Specs." category it means specifications were only provided on a select few diamonds or that specification "ranges" are provided.
