Would I do that, if I had gold or platinum certificates? No. But if they were my dads? Hell yeah I’d sell them. And selling his RRHOF trophy isn’t a big deal to me- whether he keeps the award or sells it or melts it for scrap metal or uses it as a door stopper, he’s still in the HOF regardless. It’s not an insult if he offers it for auction. The honor is still his, no matter what he does with the trophy.
At least the fans have a chance to buy the items.

If I’d been awarded such honours I’d treasure them forever. And if my dad/mum sold them I’d be heartbroken. They’d be the number one thing I’d want to inherit. Why oh why would anyone ever sell anything like that?….unless they were totally broke?
