This item is being auctioned on behalf of the Rios family. You are bidding on the original iced out Terror Squad medallion worn by Big Pun, the first Latin solo rapper to go Platinum. This is not a duplicate, this is the authentic piece that Big Pun paid over $100,000 to have created.

The Medallion is Yellow Gold dipped in White Gold, roughly 598 grams. There are approximately 1728 baguette diamonds, and approximately 173 round diamonds in the medallion. The winning bidder of this auction will travel to New York (flight expenses will be deducted from the total) where they will receive the T.S. medallion personally from Liza Rios.

The sale of this medallion goes to Big Pun's wife and three children. Since Pun's untimely passing in 2000, Pun's wife has struggled to raise their three children as well as make mortgage payments on their home and other expenses. Contrary to what some believe, the family are far from millionaires, Pun's wife and children do not receive royalty checks for Pun's first two albums, and only one small royalty check was paid for Pun's final album. The family's attempts to get the money due to his children have been unsuccessful to date. By bidding on this piece of Hip Hop history, you are helping the family of a Rap legend, part of the funds will also go towards legal efforts to retrieve any unpaid album sale money the children could receive.

if he had enough money to pay over 100 thousand for the iced out piece shouldn't he have put money to the side for his family? sad but that is how most rappers are living cd to cd instead of check to check.

^^^ That isn't how it is, dude. They were fine until his death. They aren't getting any royalties or monies from the sales after his death. That's the probelm. Later, QD.

I did some more research about the situation and found that Fat Joe & Liza Rios have actually been going at it for a while now...
This is what i found :

Liza Rios was on New York's WBLS 107.5 with Egypt last week explaining how her husband, Big Pun abused her psychologically and physically. The abuse is documented on a DVD, "Big Pun: Still Not A Player, " that she released months ago. The documentary has footage of Pun hitting his wife with a gun and pulling her hair. She even lashed out at Fat Joe, claiming that Fat Joe isn't loyal to Big Pun or his family.

"Where's your loyalty? You've been gamin. How you gonna steal food from his kid's mouth." Rios claims that Fat Joe has given her little to no money since Pun has passed. Joe was the executive producer of all of Pun's albums. She said that Joe paid her three payments of $1,500, $12,000 and $15,000. She said that Joe has taken advantage of the man that put Latino's on the map and said that Pun was also responsible for his successful career.

"Joe wasn't there. Fat Joe was running around cashing out his money. I was the one helping him go to the bathroom. I had to wipe his ass. I made him look beautiful for all of the girls out there. I blew him up."

Towards the end of the show, Fat Joe called into the station. "Ain't nobody sending me any royalty checks," stated Joe. She made over half a million dollars. I can show the check stubs and everything. She never let me or the Terror Squad see her kids."

Fat Joe also said claimed that Pun was abusive because his wife was sleeping around. "I don't condone any man hitting a woman," Joe said. "But she slept with his brother. Pun beat her up because she was sleeping with other men in his house."

As the two argued back and forth, Egypt was forced to end her show early.

...This was Back in 02'

It seems that if this was a part of rap "history" some of today's big money guys could just snatch it up themselves. I mean if you can get over how ugly it is.

Seems to me like there is some bad blood with somebody somewhere.
