Larry; I don't care if the value goes up or down, and the stock ones don't sell anyway so how can it hurt the value of the stock one it was a look thing with me.I talked to Fredie till I was blue in the face telling him it should have the gold on it just like the Caesar's 1/4lb., but he wouldn't change. So I then knew that I wanted mine with gold on it, and then I found others that also wanted it done the same so we did it.
No scan shows the true color of the gold, but on the logo side all the coin is bright gold, and the logo is done in frosted gold at a real flash just like the one pounder's.
I do have an extra one that I will take offers on if anyone is looking for a Gold plated one. Please E-mail. Semper Fi. Chuck
