About Steel sq shield
The Steel sq shield is a free-to-play piece of equipment in Old School RuneScape.
"A medium square shield"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 111 and 619 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 214 gp. About 1,037 units changed hands per day. The price is down 44.5% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 4 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 360 gp, which is 68.2% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
