Author Buck (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pearl

'author buck' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pearl that I've seen before include "Paragon" , "Off-white colour" , "Gem from a bivalve" , "Much loved and valued person" , "Gem; an attacked Harbor" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
