    Spooky Auction Includes Human Bones

    Posted on October 28th, 2014 by Goldman Buyer

    The Danse Macabre, an auction fit for Halloween, was held Oct. 22 in New Jersey, and featured a variety of creepy items.

    Just how creepy were they? Sold items included everything from sheet music, to a 19th century voodoo kit, to actual human bones! Human foot bones sold for $123, a partial skull sold for $461, and a hand of bones sold for $223.

    A 19th century vampire hunting kit raked in over $11,000. The ‘kit’ was a wooden coffin box with wooden stakes, garlic, holy water and more. A voodoo kit including a wax doll, claw, shell and herbs sold for $2,460.

    Customer Testimonial

    Had a Great Experience

    I have dealt in coins and metals since the 80s. Had dealings with many dealers. Got scammed by a few. Chicago Gold is the only one I would recommend to my family or friends. Have your valuables appraised by them before you sell.

    Awesome place!

    What a super knowledgeable gemologist. After all that experience also they are soooo willing to help and answer all the questions I had. Excellent experience. They went above and beyond for me. Highly recommended. Super trustworthy.

    I'll be back

    Cashed in some silver coins and received a very fair exchange. Joe and Chris, were very friendly, and comfortable to deal with. Came back with some jewelry, and received a rough appraisal...again no pressure.

    I would do business with them again

    I found the Chicago Gold Gallery to be a very honest and reputable shop. I would highly recommend this store to anyone buying and selling their possessions.
