Originally, it was Enerdhil, but seemingly Tolkien intended to change this to Celebrimbor.

The Dwarves of the Blue Mountains treasured the Nauglamir and/or the Silmaril set in it above gold, and Thorin treasured the Arkenstone above a mountain of gold? Not sure about the first one though.

I'm not too sure about the first one either. Try again.

No, you're thinking too cryptically. It's put rather plainly that this certain dwarf lord prized it above a mountain of wealth.
BTW, the Arkenstone is correct...

No, and no. Think richer dwarves.
HINT: This thing was given to the dwarf lord by Cirdan...

The River Ascar, which was renamed Rathlóriel, the Goldenbed, because the treasure of Doriath was drowned there.

If it wasn't Elrond, then it must have been Cirdan.

Why do people keep guessing Gil-Galad? He was dead at that time.

I for one, based my original guess off this sentence: "He [Isildur] alone stood by his father in that last mortal contest; and by Gil-galad only Cirdan stood, and I. But Isildur would not listen to our counsel." Though, if I had thought it through, you are right, Gil-Galad was dead.

Man, I'm going for a real longshot, but I think it can work. Hopefully there's more than one right answer. But, is the answer, ents?
