PA Oct 28: picks vs. melt

Know before you bid: 27% buyer's premium in-house (it may differ on Bidsquare and other platforms) · new buyers cannot pay by credit card · 6% PA sales tax on pickups in PA · pick up or ship within 7 days. Pook & Pook terms · Full catalog

Melt = metal weight × spot. Spot used: Gold $4,169.50 · Silver $57.46 · Platinum $1,648.00 · Palladium $1,148.00 per troy oz (gold-api.com, 2026-10-19 01:07 UTC = Oct 18, 6:07 PM PT). These are estimates, not prices or what a dealer pays. Collector value is ignored. Lots 7733, 7728 and 7730 don't state purity, so their melt is an upper bound. "High est. + 27% BP" is the high estimate × 1.27, before tax, shipping or payment fees.
