Gemstone Coin

Where does the word ‘gem’ in gemstone originate from , and who coined this term first ?
Rubies , Emeralds , Diamonds , and Saphires are the four precious gemstones.
A pearl or mineral that has been cut and polished for use as an ornament is known as a Gem, it is from Middle English gemme, from Old French, from Latin gemma. The word stems from gembh – in Indo-European roots, for a “bud” on a plant, which was used to signify a ‘Jewel’.
A gemstone is a mineral, rock (such in the case of lapis lazuli), or petrified material that when cut or faceted and polished is collectible or can be used in jewelry. Others are organic (such as amber, which is fossilised tree resin, and jet, a form of coal). Some gemstones which may be generally considered precious or beautiful are too soft or too fragile to be used in jewelry (for example, single-crystal rhodochrosite) but are exhibited in museums and are sought by collectors.
