Yeah, even from something that is in possession before the 1930s because of... well what Rick just said earlier.
I would hope gold is worth its weight in gold

This is one of those cases where they did pretty right by this guy. Sure he could try to sell it on his own, but it's not that easy. The guy could have wound up with 24K, but instead 11K over and the Rickster will hopefully make a nice chunk all said and done.
Agreed, try taking that gold bar into the grocery store and buy food. Now he has a stack of good ole green backs.

@@zacharykoedyker3978 It's actually "eaten".
Check yourself before you try to correct someone else.
I'm surprised they didn't weight it (or at least they didn't show that part) and rapidly jumped into saying it's worth $24K then settling for $35K. This piece could've been worth a lot more, not only for its weight, but because it's a very unique, potentially highly collectible piece.
I wonder how much Rick sold it for. The part where he says. People pay a lot. Trust me, A LOT! Made me think he's probably going to make a quarter of a million or something on it.
Don't think rick knows it's worth more than 48 grand either to the right party
Rick bit his lip on this and would have payed more

He has to walk around the counter as well as putting it in the back. Do you also think Rick just jumps the counter. I've also been to the store several times. I can tell you exactly where he would have walked around from.
He never weighed it to see exactly what it was worth. He just threw out number and the guy never questions it. Not too smart.
Agree 100 percent. Why not weigh it and see what it's really worth
Not so real either , let's say 48 is the real value who reduce 30 percentage to a bar of gold so fake I can't believe it
They probably weighed it but didn't show that part on TV
Its all completely staged anyways

Well,to be fair, he was offered 15 bucks, a handshake and a Snickers chocolate bar.
You could see the desperation in his eyes. The min the guy mentions “I would give you 32k for it” I would have been like, no thank you and left.
I mean he got $35,000 and that’s still a lot of cash. The bar was way over $70,000 probably, but I’d take $35,000 any day over 28,000.
This item is called a fingerbar in the trade. They were made to be as long as a typical forearm, but very few complete ones have ever been found. They're usually cut into halves or even small pieces (probably used in smaller transactions). Most likely this partial fingerbar was discovered in the 80s by Mel Fisher. Numerous fingerbars, even a few complete ones, large money chains, ornate money chains, emeralds, gold dubloons, and ship artifacts have been found in recent decades. Ships would often crash into coral reefs and they decomposed in shallow waters, making it possible for those bars/coins to either be found in shallow water or for hurricanes to deposit them on the beach. Even in the last decade, metal detectorists have occasionally found long gold chains (called money chains) from the 1700s Spanish Fleet as well as coins. The bars are probably the hardest items to find being that they are heavier than coins and chains. It's very possible tho. This thing is real. Note that the expert's name is Mel and he only showed up this 1 time in show history. He was probably a relative of Mel Fischer who actually owned the bar and lent it to the show to use on camera.
Thank you for his informative comment

Bitcoin and similar assets are what we call speculative assets, meaning their value is determined by the next person willing to pay a higher price. Stocks real estate etc are productive assets where there value is derived from things they produce (e.g rents,profits etc.) Hence the term "productive" so there's definitely differences there :)
Yupp risk come from lack of knowledge
DON'T UNDERSTAND = DONT INVEST
Bitcoin is the future of crypto and the questions traders ask themselves now is if this is the right time to invest? Before jumping into conclusion I think you take a look at things first
Spread your money among different asset categories like Bitcoin and stocks, then further allocate those funds within each category
The rich invest their money first into assets instead of purchasing liabilities,take a wise decision today to buy and invest in crypto currency
Investing in crypto is lucrative and a big chance to make money online

as far as gold bars randomly coming into the shop with some corral on it from an unidentified shipwreck, this is the holy grail
35k is a fair price for this. Keep in mind that even if Rick sold it at 50k an auction the auction house takes around 20-30% of the value depending on the contract he has with them so he put a ton of risk for that.
Those go for 150k up dumbass. Its museum quality and a collectors dream.
Rick wouldn’t sell it at auction he has a store plus contacts, he just uses that to get a lower price
Not only will he never auction this off, I have NEVER seen an auction house that charges the seller a fee anything close to that.

Pawn shops are for desperate people. Be patient and get your best price from the highest bidder not the only bidder.
That’s what I be over here saying. People are stupid. They’re getting robbed and want it to happen.
@@erronblack308 90% of people just want money THAT same day. Unless they have money in the bank and really dont need anything. Screwing around with Auctions / Auction fees is too much of a headache for a average person that doesn't know how to sell something like that. & forget about trying to sell something like that on a local marketplace.
Where do you sell it then?
They have to make money. And you would be stupid to think you can just sell that thing to someone. Rick knows people who can buy it and you dont. And you may get scammed or robbed. And who knows how long it would take for you to sell it yourself. And auctions are a lot more complicated too its not like you can call an auction house and just sell it there.

Person: "I want my money's worth"
Rick: "Porque?"
"It was Illegal to own gold... and it still is. Take him away, Officers!"
I love how they never wave the gold bar to see how much actually weighs.... it's probably like $100,000 worth of gold on it
You must not be familiar with the 24 karat scale. Gold is pretty dense and anyone who routinely handles gold or collects it can roughly tell the purity of it from its color and weight. Given that Rick owns a busy pawnshop he is pretty experienced in calculating how much the gold bar is worth by holding it and analyzing the color. Cheers
And even then they edit a lot of that stuff out.
@OGR you most likely have never seen or held more than 8oz of gold in your life. Rick gives him an APPROXIMATE value of $24,000 when he first handles and analyzes the gold bar. Of course he weighed it out off the camera after and rounded accordingly clown.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 $100,000 worth!?!? At $1731/oz spot right now, you’re looking at over 55oz. I PROMISE you that ain’t 55 oz of gold. You can do about 10 minutes worth of research on the internet and find all this information; what gold costs, the size and dimensions of bullion bars and rounds, etc. You don’t need to be Mr Knowitall, just need a little common sense and motivation
@OGR how is he a creep? He’s just calling you out for being rude.

I would have held onto this gold bar until I truly know of its origin and value. I think the seller was way too anxious about selling the gold without really thinking it through. It is already confirmed by an expert that it is from a shipwreck which like the expert said changes the value significantly.
Maybe seller is broke and need fast cash. But your smart holding and doing research is best. Maybe it is worth 70K
Maybe he wanted a steak dinner
The show is fake
Yea I have held onto crap for years just hoping they would be worth something. And none of it has value. Get rid of it when you can and make a buck and clear up some much needed space

He said " you've got approximately $24,000 worth of gold here"
Indicating he was saying the value of just the gold.
He then proceeds to examine the bar and ends up getting someone in who doubled that value. He paid $35,000 and will probably get $50,000+ however he has taken the risk of tying his money up in a product and a 30% return is fairly low for a retail business.
