Besides Coins and Magic Items, SRD 5.2(.1) does not include a "Treasure" section at all!

Gems

Listed values of gems (assumed to be already cut) vary a lot. The final price depends on qualities such as carat weight, color, brightness, clarity, cut, where they are from, and were they treated (might enhance color but lowers the price). Costs were estimated by dividing modern dollar/euro cost by 35.

Aluminosilicates

  • Spectrolite.[1] Worth about 10 to 20 GP, but large, colorful ones can easily cost 100 GP or more.

Calcium Carbonates

  • Pearl.[2] From 1 to 150 GP.

Crystalline Solids

  • Amethyst.[3] From 1 SP to 4 GP per pound (not by carat).
  • Diamond.[4] Worth about 40 to 2,500 GP. The most valuable diamond (comparable to the Cullinan Diamond) would cost about 12 million GP.
  • Ruby.[5] About 100 to 30,000 GP, or much more!
  • Sapphire. About 7 SP to 3,500 GP.
  • Blue Sapphire.[6] About 100 GP to 5,000 GP.
  • Padparadscha Sapphire.[7] a rare, pink-orange sapphire, the most valuable of them. About 300 GP to 20,000 GP.
  • Star Sapphire.[8] About 150 GP to 10,000 GP.

Cyclosilicates

  • Aquamarine. [9] About 1 to 40 GP.
  • Emerald. [10] About 150 to 50,000 GP.

Nesosilicates

  • Topaz. [11] About 1 to 100 GP.

Oxide Minerals

  • Hematite.[12] From near worthless to 15 CP.

Resins

  • Amber.[13] About 5 SP to 20 GP. Those that contain fossils are valuable.
  • Jet (Black Amber).[14] About 3 to 100 GP.

Spinel Group

  • Spinel. About 5 to 1,700 GP.

Jewelry

All jewelry is worth at least the weight in metal they were made of, and any jewels or gemstones included.

Other than the amount of precious metals, jewels, and gemstones, the quality of craftwork has a huge impact on cost. Items made by famous jewellers are the most valuable. Cost of possible enchantment will also be included in the value.

Remember: most jewelry is cheap! Deliberate fakes are also common.

Crowns: Real crowns made for monarchs are indeed expensive. From 1,000 GP to priceless. The Imperial State Crown would be worth about 1,630,000,000 GP.
Earrings: About 2 CP to 3,700 GP.
Necklaces: About 1 SP to 10,000 GP.
Bracelets: About 1 SP to 8,500 GP.
Brooches: About 1 to 6,000 GP.
Pendants: About 1 SP to 2,800 GP.
Rings: About 1 SP to 50,000 GP.
Tiaras: About 1 to 8,000 GP.
Sceptres: About 100 to 10 million GP.
