Ty Cobb’s golf tourney prize

[u/TemporaryEmployee465]

My wife found this at a thrift store here in the Bay Area. She was going to melt it down and make some jewelry and I said no way. I did the research and found the archived newspaper talking about this golf tournament. He participated in and this appears to be what he won. No idea how it ended up at a thrift store but the country club is also local.

So, you're saying that it will be valued at $25k, but the best he can do is $100?

[u/8years47weeks → u/swervin_mervyn]

$150 and that's really more than he's comfortable paying

[u/ParsleyBeneficial123 → u/8years47weeks]

That's 100 cash, 50 in store credit

Usually the other way around.
