Strange one

Not much info on this one. Any info appreciated.
Comes up as 999 on XRF, but I'm not sure.

Oh, that's where it went. Nice buy.

 

Thank you gents.
Well I can't get a more up-to-date appraisal than that. Obviously it's only worth what someone might pay, but was it good buying at that price? Gold was around the $2200 mark at the time from memory.

 

I wonder why it doesn't have the Perth Mint logo. Any idea of mintage?

 

It sold last time two years ago for $2385 (spot about $1870).

 

OK, thanks for that I thought it sold in March 2021. Definitely quite good then.

 

I meant the previous time, before it showed up in March 2021 again.

 

Ah right. I suppose it really comes down to interest on the day. Do you know much about them?

 

That's the only one I've seen, sorry - I wish I knew more.

 

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

 

I could be wrong as my memory is a bit shaky!
I think they were Bullion dealers in Sydney who went bust in the 1980s.
I think people who entrusted their gold with Bargold lost all or some of it.
They were in business pre-internet so I can't find anything about them online.

 

Thanks Steve, that would also explain the lack of PM swan logo. Pretty bloody cheeky with the name, unless they had permission

 

I think as a collectors piece, it was a good buy for that price, as not many around. I was bidding in that Nobles auction and tried to research it. I think Bar Gold were Bullion dealers in Sydney who went ceased trading in the 80s, not much info around. I was thinking if it was a one off, prototype design, etc as it didn't show the PM logo, so I doubt they had permission. Was from the D.G.L.Worland Collection, now in Shlomo vault I take it

 

Yes, in Shlomo vault, but will be putting it up for trade.

 

When?...
