Most people have heard of Nelson Mandela, but few know that his hands were once cast in PURE GOLD! This was so exciting for me to learn about and yet again shows that when it counts.... humans always use gold.
Nelson Mandela’s gold hands are a whopping 20 LBS of pure gold. According to the article I read pure gold was indeed used, unlike many ‘gold’ items I have written about here on Steemit. See: https://steemit.com/olympics/@goldmatters/how-much-gold-are-in-the-pyeongchang-olympic-gold-medals
This means these gold hands could have been Menē gold hands, had Menē existed a few years ago!
At todays gold prices the hands have a metal value of around $416,000 USD

Because the gold hands sold for ten million dollars , they actually would NOT have been one of the Menē items Goldmoney had displayed at PDAC:
Menē never has a more that 20% fee over spot price.
There is another interesting fact about Mandela’s gold hands and their new owner. They paid for these pure gold hands...
