11/5/09 – Pompano Beach, Fla.
Pompano Beach, Fla. – November 5, 2009 – Cash4Gold (www.Cash4Gold.com), the world’s #1 gold buyer direct from consumers, congratulates the New York Yankees on their 2009 World Series title. The team hoisted the Commissioner’s Trophy following a hard-fought six-game series victory over the National League champion Philadelphia Phillies.
The famed trophy is made of sterling silver with a gold overlay. The 30-pound prize includes a solid base that holds 30 gold-plated flags representing each MLB team. Interestingly, the Commissioner’s Trophy is the only championship trophy in the four major U.S. sports that is not named after a specific person. Certified appraisers at Cash4Gold’s state-of-the-art processing facility have estimated the melt value at around $7,750. Melt value refers to the actual precious metals content included in an item and does not account for artistic, historic, or sentimental value.
“As transplanted New Yorkers now living in the sixth borough, also known as Florida, it gives us great pride to see the Yankees capture their historic 27th World Series championship,” said Cash4Gold CEO Jeff Aronson and Cash4Gold President Howard Mofshin. “The Yankees have won 26 of these trophies over the years, and if they want to send number 27 to Cash4Gold, we would be happy to provide the appraisal.”
Earlier this year, Cash4Gold appraised the melt values of the NHL’s Stanley Cup and NBA’s Larry O’Brien Trophy. The company has a long tradition of sports sponsorships, including such teams as the Washington Wizards and Milwaukee Bucks, as well as Jim Dunn Racing and NASCAR’s JD Motorsports. This year, Cash4Gold announced that it is backing a handful of top MMA fighters such as Randy “The Natural” Couture and Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos.
