<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 4094104, member: 27832&quot;]I think the photos are clear enough.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is probably genuine, and contains a bit less than a quarter-ounce of gold, worth about $380 at current prices. I&#039;m guessing that the bezel is marked 14K, and the chain is marked 10K. Total gold content (and total value) would depend on how much the bezel and chain weigh.</p><p><br /></p><p>Around here, pawn shops <i>buy</i> gold coins and jewelry for a good bit less than gold value (so they can meet their expenses and make a profit). If they&#039;re offering you $600 for the whole thing, that chain may be heavier than I thought. A pawn shop usually isn&#039;t the best place to get top dollar for this sort of thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>If that scale is yours, can you show us how much the whole piece weighs -- or, better yet, separate weights for the bezel and for the chain?</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and welcome to CoinTalk![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
