an Austrian medal from a San Jose anqitue store

Hello guys, I just bought an Austrian medal from a San Jose anqitue store. Although I don't collect medals, I can't resist its dark brown toning and the silk-like feeling at hand. It's pretty large, 42mm x 3.5mm. How much do you guys think it worth?

    Hmmmm, Very interesting! I guess it is worth about fifteen cents, and I will pay 3.50 shipping on top of that and then give another 35 cent tip for locating it. I will send you 4 bucks and take that medal off your hands and let you sleep in peace now that you know what it is really worth.

    I have no clue about the true value, but as I keep saying, if the price is right, I will take it home with me...

    I have no idea on value, so it is worth exactly what you paid (well maybe 10% more--I'm sure it was a bargain image). Pretty cool looking too.

    BTW

    Just a hunch, but almost certainly less than $50.00 and probably less than $25.00.

    I've been surprised before though.

  • You guys are right, I paid $17. Not an expensive one, but I like it, because I can put it in my pocket and hold it in my hand without worrying about damaging it.image
