deepblue Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I have had this for ages. Its a Beatles brooch made in England..circa 1963. I got curious and sent it away to a "Beatles Paraphanalia" expert. Anyone wanna guess as to its worth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruznolfart Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Not being a follower of that kinda stuff in any shape or fashion, I can only guess. Based on the ridiculous prices peeps have paid for things like rocks or mold, I'd guess a couple hundred bucks for the locket. Hope it's a lot more.

Riffster Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 That item looks quite unique, I am going to guess a few hundred like $750? (shot in the dark) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I have had this for ages. Its a Beatles brooch made in England..circa 1963.I got curious and sent it away to a "Beatles Paraphanalia" expert. Anyone wanna guess as to its worth? I suspect it would depend on how many were made. The interest in The Beatles is still strong amongst us old farts, so of course it will have THAT value always...if there were tens of thousands of them, I suspect it's value will be modest. If, however, they made a thousand or less, and only a small number are still around, it could be worth a couple of thousand. But what do I know? I bought "Planet Hollywood" stock 'cause I thought the restaurants displays would be worth million$!! It IS in great shape.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookieman15061 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 It would be worth more if one of those pics were of the butcher cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepblue Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 You figure in 1963 it probably cost very little to buy....46 years later, $85....I feel like Donald Trump! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Seek out a Beatles collections dealer, or web site...even an antiques dealer could give you some idea. From what I've seen, on collector's web sites, the pins are about 30-50, and the booches are 50-300 dollars. If it's fairly rare...it could be considerably higher, in value. ???
