Hello All, I put on a living history display and have wanted some hand poured gold bars for display and to pass around. On the "bay" I found just what I was looking for...... about 26 grams each made from recoverd computer pins/CPU's and payed less than $15 each w/shipping. So this got me wondering...... what would you guess their gold content is really? Thanks friends, Paul.
Rest in Peace

oh the gold blobs from melted computer pins. Interesting fact most pins are not even gold plated.
I would say 1/25 of a gram and thats being generous.

Not worth buying if you are thinking of making some money, But ok if you buy it as a hobby.
