1936年諾貝爾和平獎獎牌拍得116萬美元

A 1936 Nobel Peace Prize discovered at a South American pawn shop has been sold at auction in Baltimore for $1.16 million.

1936年諾貝爾和平獎獎牌在美國巴爾的摩的拍賣會上拍出116萬美元高價，這枚獎牌是在南美的一家當鋪裏被發現的。

Brian Kendrella, president of New York-based Stack's Bowers Galleries, says the auction drew half a dozen bidders from six countries. The winning bidder Thursday was an individual collector from Asia who asked to remain anonymous.

布萊恩·肯德羅拉是紐約Stack's Bowers Galleries 拍賣行的行長，他透露這次拍賣吸引了來自6個國家的6名競拍者。在星期四舉行的拍賣會上，中標者是一名匿名的亞洲收藏家。

The prize sold for a winning bid of $950,000 at auction, and an additional buyer's commission brought the final sale price to $1.16 million.

這枚獎牌在拍賣會上以95萬美元的價格成交，但是需要額外支付的買方佣金使得最終的拍賣價格達到116萬美元。

This is only the second Nobel Peace Prize to come to auction. This award marked the first time someone from Latin America received the honor. The 1936 recipient was Argentina's foreign minister, Carlos Saavedra Lamas.

這是第二枚被拍賣的諾貝爾和平獎獎牌，得主是第一個獲得該獎項的拉美人——1936年諾貝爾和平獎獎牌被授予當年的阿根廷外長卡洛斯·薩維德·拉莫斯。

The prize sold for far more than the gallery's estimate of $50,000 to $100,000. The only other Nobel Peace Prize known to have sold at auction was a 1903 medal that brought nearly $17,000 in 1985.

這枚獎牌拍出的高價遠遠超過了該拍賣行預計的成交金額——5萬美元到10萬美元。此前，僅有1903年諾貝爾和平獎獎牌在1985年被拍賣，拍得將近1.7萬美元。
