[QUOTE="terry5732, post: 9608182, member: 42"]Was funny watching the Brit show where they pull things out for auction to pay for their vacation in Spain Woman had a five ounce 22K bracelet and they catalogued it as yellow metal because it didn't have British hallmark. Sold for $300. Gold was about $700 at the time. And the whole crowd was dealers. They had a 1908 US $20 gold coin worth about $20,000 at the time but wouldn't even call that gold and it went for $300. It is unlikely that gold jewelry will sell for more at auction than you can get scrapping it. Scrapping does not have the auctioneers fees.[/QUOTE]
