💰 Approximate Value
Value depends on metal content:
• If silver (often .999 or .925) → $25–$80 depending on weight
• If silver-plated or base metal → $10–$30 typical resale
• MEGA slab adds presentation value, but major grading companies (PCGS/NGC) usually command higher premiums
MS65 Ultra Cameo suggests proof-like finish, but for souvenir medals this does not greatly increase value.
