As per post, really, just out of interest to settle an argument, (somone reckoning it's worth nearly as much as gold, which is $1300 per oz).

Nothing like gold , damn sure its not cheap tho and i could be wrong but i think it could have been what my sis's prop on the barge is made of . They had a new one made this year at a cost of 3k i believe

I wouldn't say it's quite 'jack ****.

Last year my lad scrapped in a load of old taps, copper pipe etc and got over £50 for it.
