sure, thanks a lot anyway :cirnosmile:

the context is that the biggest Slovak mafia boss got this as a gift for his birthday in '97 (it's even recorded on tape, he seemed to like it) days before getting incarcerated and two decades later, he arranged getting this sent to the biggest Slovak rapper as his wedding gift. his reaction was pretty much "cool sword, thanks" and then he put it into his locker
now there's some hype around the mafia guy as a movie came out about him, and the rapper suddenly realizes "wait, it's HIS sword? it's that sword???" and he brought it to a podcast

anyway, I guessed as well that it's probably not *that* valuable in itself but these guys were just not sure at all if it's some cheap ass replica or an actual expensive relic. I guess that the gold is real but that's about it, the funny history now probably gives more value to the sword than the... sword itself
