This is a Treasure worth , like Silver. You play it in your Buy phase, like other Treasures. When you play it, you get an extra + per unused Action you have. This means Actions, not Action cards. So for example if you play Farming Village (which gives you +2 Actions), then Diadem, Diadem will give you an extra + , for total. If you play no Action cards at all on your turn, you will have one unused Action, so you will get total from Diadem. This is a Prize; see the Additional Rules.

Secret History
Diadem started in the large version of Alchemy long ago, as an Action: "+$2. Return this to your hand." It was a cute combo with Villages, but useless without them. I then tried some "choose one" versions, which solved the problem of it sometimes being dead, but didn't make the actions-to-money part any better. I eventually gave up on it, and well here it is at last.
