My identity as a collector was exposed by the village flower

Chapter 383 Amethyst and 69-year-old Lafite

In Warehouse 82 behind, Fang Xing suggested that Jim take a picture of it.

Jim didn't want to play at first, but since the big customers said so, he followed his wishes, and it was only three thousand five hundred dollars anyway.

But to his surprise, an Olympic silver medal was found inside, which was the silver medal of the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics.Although it is not a gold medal, if this kind of silver medal is put up for auction, it is worth tens of thousands of dollars, right?

"The 1932 Olympic Games was also the beginning of our country's Olympic Games!" Xia Yu remembered that it was the first time that my country sent athletes to participate in the competition.

Of course, in that Olympic Games, only Liu Changchun participated in the Chinese delegation, and due to lack of preparation, Liu Changchun failed to show his level.

However, Liu Changchun created the history of China's participation in the Olympic Games and had a profound impact on the development of Chinese sports.

Regardless of the dust on the silver medal, Jim gave Fang Xing a big kiss, thanking Fang Xing.

The fact that he won an Olympic silver medal quickly spread on the scene.An old man came to ask the price, and finally bought it for $[-].

"Thank you, it's cheap, 30 US dollars is only about [-] RMB. This is a silver medal!" Li Zhen said.

And it was in 1932, almost 100 years from now.Shouldn't it be memorable?
"Olympic medals are not as valuable as you think, gold medals are okay.

No.1 and No.2 seem to be only one place apart, but the fame and social value are very different. Everyone will only remember who the champion is, who cares who No.2 is?
Moreover, the general silver medal is not pure silver. "Fang Xing said.

Silver is easy to oxidize. If it is made of pure silver, the silver medal may be oxidized and blackened before the medal is issued.In order to make the silver medal more vivid and beautiful, more stable materials are added, which is beautiful and reduces the cost.

"Of course, if it is auctioned, the price will definitely be higher."

There was news before that an athlete in Poland auctioned his hard-won silver medal for $12 in order to save a baby.

This is a public auction, and this price is only possible with the addition of public welfare.

Besides, is 30 RMB still less?
With this experience, Jim pushed harder.He also pays for the cleaners, Fang Xing and others are not allowed to intervene.

He felt that Fang Xing was his lucky star.

At Fang Xing's suggestion, Xu Qing took pictures of warehouse No. 137, while Yuanyuan took pictures of warehouse No. 138.

Xu Qing got a chandelier, very artistic, and the chandelier was decorated with amethyst.

"Amethyst is the most valuable crystal." Xia Yu said.

Having said that, he still didn't think much of the chandelier.In Xia Yu's opinion, even if it is decorated with amethyst, it can sell for tens of thousands of yuan, isn't it good?

From the color point of view, the color of amethyst is deep, the deeper the purple, the more uniform the distribution, and the blue tone is the top grade.

In addition, the craftsmanship of amethyst is also an important factor affecting its value.

Generally speaking, in the case of keeping other factors unchanged, the modeling in the process requires coordinated proportions, clear primary and secondary, and vivid images, and the polishing requires bright and no scratches.Such amethyst is definitely more valuable for collection.

"Don't underestimate this amethyst chandelier. Every single crystal here is cut with extreme care. Coupled with the design of the chandelier, do you believe it can fetch more than 20 US dollars?" Fang Xing laughed.

$20?
More than 100 million RMB?

This made everyone stunned again.

Xia Yu smiled awkwardly: "Is Amethyst so valuable?"

"Then you don't know. In the past, amethyst was more precious than diamonds. Only after mining technology improved and the output of amethyst was high, the price dropped.

In the auction market, ornaments made of this kind of old amethyst can often fetch high prices.I don't know the most expensive one, but I remember that there are more than 50 US dollars.

To be honest, things made of glass can fetch tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars. Why do you look down on amethyst? "

Everyone stopped talking immediately.

50 million US dollars, more than 300 million RMB!

"Then I'll take it home." Xu Qing smiled.

Women, can't resist these colored gemstones.Let's not say it's worth it!But it does look beautiful this way.If it is equipped with electric lights, it will be more charming under the illumination of the lights.

As for Yuanyuan's No. 138 warehouse, they found two bottles of red wine.

Everyone saw that it was Lafite in 1869.

"Unfortunately, it's not Lafite in 82."

Seeing the brand of Lafite red wine, everyone's first reaction is Lafite 82.

Lafite is one of the world-renowned French wines and a representative of French red wine.

And 1982 was a rare good year. The weather conditions in that year were excellent, which made the quality of the grapes very good. Therefore, the wine of this year was well received by wine collectors all over the world, so it was also very expensive.

But the reason why Lafite became popular in China in 82 is because of the opening of Lafite in the film and television drama.Among them, Fa Ge said in the famous scene movie "God of Gamblers", that Chen Haonan in "Young and Dangerous" also wants to drink.

This may not be understood by Lafite Company, but it suddenly became popular in China.

It is very difficult to buy 82 Lafite in the market, because 82 Lafite is one of the best vintages, and it has been treasured by many people since it was launched.

"Ahem! You may be mistaken. Lafite is famous in 82, but it is not the most precious. A bottle of Lafite in 69 can sell for 180 million Hong Kong dollars.

In comparison, Lafite in 82 was not even qualified to serve as a foil for green leaves. "Fang Xing corrected their ideas.

You know, a bottle of Lafite red wine in 82 is only between 10 and [-] yuan.This can only be said to be expensive, but it is not outrageous.

"Ah!" Li Zhen was shocked.

This is embarrassing!

"A bottle of 180 million Hong Kong dollars? Then here are two bottles, 360 million?" Xia Yu also had embarrassment written on her face.

Fang Xing nodded: "Yes! It was auctioned ten years ago, so I don't know now."

But everyone understands that it must be more expensive now!

Yuanyuan smiled and narrowed her eyes, like a crescent moon, very beautiful.

Xia Yu's mouth was dry: "I dare not drink such expensive wine."

Xu Qing twitched her lips, the tea cakes in Brother Fang's house cost more than 100 million yuan! What is more than 100 million red wine?
"This is not the most expensive, the most expensive should be Isabella Islay whiskey, priced at 620 million US dollars, almost 4000 million yuan.

Of course, the reason why Isabella Islay whiskey is so expensive has a lot to do with its bottle, which is studded with thousands of broken diamonds.The bottle accounts for the bulk of the total value, and the wine itself is a bit insignificant. "Fang Xing said to everyone.

The live broadcast room suddenly exploded.

A bottle of wine is almost 4000 million. Even if you know that the bottle itself is the most valuable, everyone is shocked!

Is this one of the top luxury goods in the world?
"We don't know anything about luxury items. We always thought that luxury sports cars are the top luxury goods. It wasn't until I watched this live broadcast that I realized that sports cars are just like that."

"Everyone will not forget the Song Dynasty official kiln cosmetic box mentioned yesterday, right?"

"Hiss! I almost forgot."

"From this point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that a bottle of wine is about 4000 million!"

"That's right, cosmetic boxes are sold for almost 5000 million RMB, and the most expensive wine in the world doesn't even have a cosmetic box!"

"To put it bluntly, women's things are expensive."

"Brother, it's the truth."
