Time for collectors: Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away this weekend, left behind, along with a magnificent legacy of 70 years of royalty, also thousands of historical items, which for the crazy people are also worth a lot of money.
After her death, naturally, there was an increase in the buying and selling of items related to the late queen, at prices that can reach tens of thousands of shekels.
On the sales giant eBay, a Barbie doll of Queen Elizabeth is offered for sale at a price of about 15 thousand Australian dollars, which is about 35 thousand shekels.
A rare postcard from 1940 with the signature of the queen, the princess at the time, and her sister Margaret, is being sold for just under NIS 40,000.
Another interesting product offered for sale on eBay is a poster of the wedding of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip from 1959, signed by the couple, costing less than 10,000 dollars.
A £5 bill from 1929, marking Elizabeth's third birthday, doubled its value 2,600 times and is for sale for £13,000, a little over NIS 50,000.
For a special medallion minted just last year, to mark the Queen's 95th birthday, sellers on eBay are asking almost NIS 30,000.
Everyone wants to collect
According to Daniel Biran, the director of the business development division in emerging markets at eBay, "The field of collectibles is one of the fastest growing areas on eBay in recent years. This is a market that generates tens of billions of dollars a year on eBay alone and received a significant jump during the Corona period, when people began to search New interests and occupations.
"Of course you can see an increase in the value of collectibles around global events such as the war in Ukraine, or in this case the death of Queen Elizabeth."
