The Delong Star Ruby resides in the Natural History Museum in New York City. It weighs 100.32 carats, (20.064 g) oval cabochon star ruby, was discovered in Burma - Myanma in the early twentieth century. It was sold by Martin Ehrmann to Edith Haggin DeLong for US $21,400, who donated it to the American Museum of Natural History in New York in 1937. In 1964, the Delong Star Ruby was the object of an infamous burglary, carried out by Jack Murphy, known as Murph the Surf, and two other men. It was then ransomed and recovered. After payment of a $25,000 ransom, it was recovered at the designated drop off site, a phone booth in Florida.
