Ironman verdict
At least 9 monsters drop it. The easiest is Cockroach drone (level 4, 1/88.09); the best rate is Glod (level 68), at Always, about 1 per kill. Other sources include Gnome Restaurant, Casket, Mystery box (random events) and Ice troll grunt, plus 4 more listed below. 2 recipes use Uncut sapphire, including Sapphire and Uncut emerald. Uncut sapphire is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 15 coins, which is 10 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
