Intriguing item?

See this is about to open?

 

Anyone know of these?

 

Tokens - NEVER SEEN BEFORE!!! Paul Kruger 1kg Gold Medallion for sale in Laudium (ID:24363897)

[brands online 10]

Indeed, let me just get through month-end and see how much spare change I have left over:p

 

Can't say I know of them or can't seem to find any info online either.

Closest is the 1892 Gold 1 Pond from the Paul Kruger proof sets.

 

Hmm.... good luck to the seller if all's okay and he sells it, buyer and of course BOB too

I think if I paid half a million Rand for an item I would expect to collect it myself and pay for it on collection (AFTER inspection!) I don't think this seller is very kind to buyers - read his "rules" about not accepting responsibility for loss, etc. Good grief!

I have seen this item advertised for sale before.

 

ZAR500000 is about US$70,000

 

1 kilo is about 33 ounces of gold at about US1,180 = US$39,000

 

not a bad premium (US$31,000) for a novelty item that has absolutely no numismatic value even if it is solid gold.

 

Kind regards

1/2 a million would pay off my house. Coin (?) .... house (?) .... oh my, decisions, decisions

@ mellowred - lol! You can live in your house, keep snug and safe in it. Can't say the same for this coin!
