How much a Diamond Ring can cost?

My grand mother recently passed away and while we were cleaning her home we found a key from a safe at the bank. When we opened it we found a huge collection of jewels we never knew she had and the most impressive one by far, is a diamond ring enclosed in a van Cleef & Arpels box. this was accompanied by a Van Cleef & Arpels & De Beers certificate that says the ring was purchased in 1958, and then it has lots of info we do not understand, such as :
color. F
Clarity VVS1
Cut : emerald
now the carats part was ripped but it mesures 1.2 inches wide per 1.8 inches long aprox.
we really dont have the slightest idea how much a diamond ring like this one would cost, a jeweler has offered us $25,000 us dllls, wich we found a great offer (it will take us out of debt completly) but we want to make sure that this is the right price for it. ...oh and by the way, according to the descripition I gave, how much carats does the diamond weights aprox? and of course how much will it cost?

Are you seriously going to sell it? It was your grandmothers.
