At this auction, Chen Xiaomin presented pure gold prizes and souvenirs that she had cherished for many years, including nine medals including her gold medal in the women's 63kg weightlifting category at the Sydney Olympics.
There is no reserve price set for these prizes, and anyone can participate in the auction.
