How much are atheist crystals worth?
I believe you mean AMETHYST crystals. Here's some info from Wikipedia: Up until the 18th century, amethyst was included in the cardinal, or most valuable, gemstones (along with diamond, sapphire, ruby, and emerald). However, since the discovery of extensive deposits in locations such as Brazil, it has lost most of its value. Collectors look for depth of color, possibly with red flashes if cut conventionally. The highest grade amethyst (called "Deep Russian") is exceptionally rare and therefore, when one is found, its value is dependent on the demand of collectors. It is, however, still orders of magnitude lower than the highest grade sapphires or rubies (padparadscha sapphire or "pigeon's blood" ruby).

What cost more a ruby or an emerald?
It depends on the stone. An emerald that is large, has excellent clarity and ideal color can cost as much as a diamond. Emeralds of this type are very rare. Sapphire values are determined by the same characteristics: color, clarity, size, cut and proportions Origin can also determine price as well as treatment. So, there is no easy answer. A natural untreated pink-orange sapphire (padparadscha) will generally cost higher than that of the same quality of emerald.
