The seller did a decent job of describing it, although they evidently had no idea what it really was

"Vintage Solid Copper 'X' Art Sculpture Paperweight" :
PS:
For those that don't recognize it, it is actually a form of primitive copper money in Africa in the 1800s, commemorated on Katanga coins of the early 1960s. A realistic value of it is about $125 to $150.

That looks a bargain price!
Well, just Love coins, period.
I might have a buyer if you're looking to sell but they are in the Netherlands.
A fascinating piece.
That is really neat!
Thanks for the offer.
I think I'm going to keep it and hang it on the wall like a sculpture
Thanks.
It is actually not that little. In fact, I think it is the largest single piece of metallic money that I have.
The longest dimension is 9.5 inches.
Now you need to add a piece of Yap money to your collection. That would also be cool.
what do you get the guy who has his own mint I guess I know the answer now.
Nice score!
