That Roman d20 - How Much!?

[Zander]

Christies auctioned a Roman d20 last December. Someone told me it eventually went for US$17,925.

Is that true?

The original Christies auction page has been taken down. Is there a page saying what the die went for? If so, what's the URL?

I'm very curious about this too, actually. That was neat.

I bet diaglo got it. It's old-school enough for him.

"Original d&d-- since 800 BCE..."

i bid on it. but lost.

i don't know what the final price was. but i know it was over $8000.

Damn, I love dice, but not $8000 love.
