Turns out the Purple One was a goldbug.

Late music legend Prince was the owner of 67 10-ounce gold bars, worth almost $840,000, according to a report from Minneapolis' Star Tribune. The "Purple Rain" star's assets come per new documents from Bremer Trust, which is cataloging Prince's estate and investments as its future heads to court.

Prince's estate is reportedly valued between $100 million and $300 million, though a chunk of that will go to taxes before passing on to his heirs. The musician, who died in April 2016 at age 57, did not leave behind a will.

Beyond his gold stash, Prince reportedly had millions of dollars in cash in his various entertainment companies and record labels, and 12 Minnesota-area properties worth an estimated $25.4 million.

Pricing awaits for many of his assets, from his "Purple Rain" motorcycle to the numerous unreleased recordings in his storied vault. What happens to that music is up to Prince's heirs, who have yet to be named: sister Tyka Nelson and a number of half-siblings reportedly seem likely to take on the estate.

Until further notice, streaming service TIDAL remains the best place to hear Prince's music online, thanks to a deal with the Jay Z-owned company that Prince made before his death. His catalog remains absent from YouTube, Spotify and other streaming competitors.
