@femtoba said: “At that price point, it is almost certainly gold bonded, gold plated, gold coated, or fake. Even 9karat gold would cost significantly more than that.”
@sapaverydeadly opined: “This here is a lie, a gold of that size can’t be lifted by 10 men not to talk of 6. That’s just a gold colored casket and nothing more”
@chi_awauzo said: “Gold casket keh? 🤣
It was just painted the gold colour”
@Cryptosavy_01 remarked: “God let me make money 💰”
