Ruby
This article contains content about features that are outdated or have been removed from the game. All functionality was replaced by emeralds.

- For the Minecraft Earth version, see Ruby (Minecraft Earth).
Rubies were originally planned to be added as part of Minecraft Java Edition 1.3 as a currency for trading with villagers, but were abandoned at the last minute in favor of emeralds due to the developer "Dinnerbone" being red-green colorblind and therefore having a hard time spotting the difference between redstone ore and ruby ore.
