There are many cases where discovering some old items of jewellery may lead to some arguments. Let"s imagine a situation that you find some old ring in the attic or in basement, what do you do? Trade it? Keep it? Is it made of gold? Does it play any role in your life or in your family history? The decision depends on the person. If someone feels strong relation with the item, he may not be willing to trade it cash for gold, but to someone for whom the item is nothing more than just Scrap gold, that sort of trade would sound fantastic. Of course, some cases are more complicated than another. Your wife wants to sell your grandfathers order made of gold and get cash for gold, whereas you would give your right arm to keep it safe! Feelings should be respected, so does sentiment, but when quite a nice sum of dollars comes into account, the issue begins to look different. Suddenly, your relict becomes just scrap gold and you do all to get rid of it. One need to have a really strong feeling of sentiment to a golden item that is worth a solid amount of money in order not to perceive it as Scrap gold.
