A couple thoughts which might get you better than melt on this listing:

1: focus.
2: background is distracting.
3: Need a closeup.

You have a bidder so you can't change the existing images but you can
add new ones. That'll help you get better bids if people know what
they're bidding on. No idea how 60 bucks worth of gold would have
retailed for 800 bucks, but... whatever.

Grab it Now!!


Can't see it, might bid if I could.

I would be interested in the OP providing proof that it did indeed retail at
$800, this however may have no bearing on it's present auction value. Billy

The Coin is 21.6K gold. It is 1/10 of an ounce but only
90% pure. So you have $62+ in gold there. The chain
and bezel are 14k so you probably have another
$60 - $100 of gold there. If you knew the total weight
in grams or pennyweight you could figure how much
in gold is there. That would be a good starting point.

Minor nit - there is 1/10th of an ounce of gold there _plus_ the
alloying metals. But the guy seems a bit optimistic overall.
