Tenebian amethyst
A Tenebian amethyst was a highly valuable gemstone.

In 2161, Thy'lek Shran was accused by some former associates of his that he had stolen a valued Tenebian amethyst. He came to  for help when they kidnapped his daughter, Talla, until he returned it. T'Pol was able to manufacture a very realistic fake, that they'd never be able to identify.

Shran and T'Pol went to Rigel X to exchange the amethyst for Talla. The exchange was successful, as the fake amethyst actually contained a strobing light that would stun anyone looking directly at it, which gave Enterprises MACOs time to attempt to capture the pirates. ()
