Photo above - the agate cup of the Holy Grail sits upon a gold base. The gold base is adorned with two emeralds. The base is dated to be a more recent addition to the Grail but it is also very old.

Our Holy Father John Paul II venerating this same chalice. He later said mass using it - it was also said this was the first "Peter" to say mass with this chalice since St. Peter.

Fun to see you catching up -- but a little intimidating.
That is really interesting - I think I have heard of that one on a history channel documentary. I also remember hearing of a wooden one that was thought to be the grail. I think it is the one that is referred to in this article here.
In the end I don't think anyone will ever know for sure - it is just a matter of faith and I think the actual cup itself isn't that important it is the story and the meaning behind it.
