Yup!
But I'm inclined to think you may never see 500 dollar gold again.
Stopped at a garage sale yesterday, bought two large size serving spoons, I could tell by the tarnish.
Reed and Barton.
Total weight 145 grams, about 4 3/4 troy ounces.
.925 AG.
55 dollars or so of silver.
Total cost: ten cents
