The auction was full of a lot of great stuff that belonged to Hefner, but there was one that seemed to clearly stand out. A 14-karat gold ring, with a special hidden compartment for a Viagra pill was auctioned for $22,400. Hefner’s widow, Crystal Hefner and Julien’s Auction organizers discovered a little blue pill while conducting an examination of his private possessions that were set to be auctioned.
