The last word is for them! > My vote 9999.99 grams > (becouse Mike will be there :D My guess: 84.84 $/g if it remains a rather small TKW, 42.42 $/g if much more is surfaced. Could even go down to 24.24 $/g at the extremes or less [..though Norway is not Spain or Portugal with their latest falls..:-)]. Then again it depends on the classification. Rather high price first, then going down, as more material surfaces, (..or a complicated situation is generated perhaps in case more dealers get involved), then prices going up again in the end if TKW remains rather small and it all gets somehow exhausted... Interesting news: the donation of the finders of the 2-pounder piece to the Norwegian state!! Without any refund in any way??? Well, then again this is Norway and true patriotism! :-) Alex Berlin, Germany Received on Tue 18 Jul 2006 06:35:27 PM PDT |
