1)LVL of crossing(full crossed/50% crossed etc
2)Pearlies(Full pearlies,Coarse Pearlies,Fine pearlies,2 rows pearlies,3 rows of pearlies)
3)Size of Gold patch on head(Full helmet,50% etc)
IMHO this fish u have shown doesnt even have full pearlies at all...it oni has single level coarse pearlies which is similar to a Highback Red tail golden.And frm the picture, it has mild PLJ or protruding lower jaw.
A piece of this quality which u have shown will oni fetch a price of ard USD$700-800 in Singapore

At the OP how does a sceond hand Honda cost 40,000US?
Very nice gold head I would totally buy one if I had the excess cash for sure. Look at that beauty! Take care of it=) since it cost u that much.
I see a lot of people saying that the fish is equiv. To a car or why spend so much money on a fish? Etc... But what's the difference compared to someone spending 5k on an LV hand bag? Or someone spending thousands of dollars to rice up their ride? Like I Myself will not understand the 5k for a handbag that's for sure! But to the people that own those it's all about quality, limited supply and fashion.
It all comes down to every individuals interest... What is valuable to u alone. To each is own....
