They used to be rare (not sure how rare, fairly rare?) until a month or
so ago, when you could make an unlimited number of them by adding a
co-owner, having the co-owner place a strongbox, removing their co-owner
status, and then clicking on the gold box. (This has been fixed, it no
longer works, so I'm not posting a bug :P) I don't think there's any
way to tell the original rare gold boxes from the recent ones.
Sorry, I can't give you a price estimate. Have you checked on
http://uo.tradespot.net/ ? I would expect them to not bring much
now. Perhaps in a year when they're rarer, as folks toss them, like the
person did with the ones you found ;)
