This famous handprint of Nelson Mandela sold for R460k
A lithograph of former South African president Nelson Mandela’s hand has been sold at a charity auction in Hong Kong for R462 000.

While 500 examples of the lithograph exist globally — with some of those belonging to Prince Charles, Oprah and David Beckham — this particular example belonged to the Mandela family before it was sold.
More Mandela memorability will be auctioned at the Mandela 100 Centenary celebration in Johannesburg in December.
