So, calculators out - Heath Lambert says that a new World Cup trophy could be yours for the bargain price of about £41,764 plus design and labour
Another estimate....
"Cash4Gold, the world's number one gold buyer direct from the public, recently said that the trophy has almost doubled in melt value since the 2006 World Cup in Germany. The rise in the price of gold has meant that the melt value of the trophy has gone from US$96,476 to an astonishing US$187,761."
Additional Input
The trophy has a scrap value of around £98,000.00, but obviously as a trophy it is priceless.
