Have you ever gotten a gem drop from a normal enemy?

Last night an Am Fah Marksman dropped a sapphire for my Paragon in Wajjun Bazaar. Several months ago, a Crimson Skull Raider dropped a ruby for my Necromancer. Both gems dropped in normal mode.

1 x Sapphire from Bladed Aatxe
2 x Sapphires from Smite Crawlers
1 x Ruby from Smite Crawler
1 x Diamond from some djin in NF, cant remember exactly where though.

EDIT: Found the screeny, diamond was in fact from a Do Not Touch (Forum Highlands) and not the Djinn itself, sorry.
So also no confirmed diamond drop here either.

When Prophecies first came out, Ruby dropped from some kind of stone elemental while doing one of the Pikin Square quests.

Yes, several times I've gotten a gem as a drop from a random foe. Also, yesterday I got a sapphire from a Hidden Treasure (from Light of Deldrimore) - second time that's happened.

Got a fair dozen of rubies and sapphires from mobs. Mostly in UW or FoW, but i do recall getting a ruby in pongmei valley and a sapphire when i was farming scar eater (probably both from kirins). I've gotten them in other places as well, like sorrow's furnace, but i can't tell for certain.
Don't recall having diamond dropped by a mob EVER though

2 rubies and a sapphire in FoW, a ruby in UW, sapphire from stone elemental in Ascalon area, and a ruby in ToPK; those are the ones I remember. All before hard mode.

I never heard that diamonds could drop from a Djinn before this thread; clearly I haven't killed enough of them. I knew their Diamond Djin Essence could be salvaged with an expert kit for one, but I've never heard of them dropping a diamond when they were killed.

Ive never had them drop for me from normal mode. Occasionally in UW and one time from a Djjin during SS/LB run.
