Overview
- A 1950s 900‑silver casket once bought for 36 DM sold for €3,500 after a duel won by Fabian Kahl over Julian Schmitz‑Avila, topping the sellers’ €2,000 goal but below the €4,000–€4,300 appraisal.
- A century‑old U.S. steamer trunk that smelled of mildew sparked a bidding battle and went to Susanne Steiger for €700, well above the sisters’ €100–€150 target and higher than the €350–€500 estimate.
- A brooch linked to Fabergé goldsmith August Hollming achieved €5,000 from Elisabeth Nüdling after Horst Lichter stepped in to clarify hallmark doubts, compared with a €7,000–€10,000 valuation.
- Volatility persisted elsewhere as a Joan Miró domino set closed at €150 after a joking €2,000 bid, while a 750‑gold Longines ladies’ pocket watch drew €1,800 from Nüdling.
- The brand’s audience stayed strong with a recent primetime ‘XXL’ drawing 3.56 million viewers, although ARD’s crime drama led that evening with 4.12 million.
