[[File:Disk of returning detail.png|left|100px]]

The '''Disk of returning''' was used to let players exit [[the Black Hole]] in ''[[RuneScape Classic]]''. At the time, a [[non-player character]] called [[Thordur]] sold them for 10 [[coins]]. This item is the second oldest [[rare]] or [[discontinued]] item in the game, beating out the [[pumpkin]] as this disk was created back in July 2001. The oldest rare is the [[half full wine jug]], being released on the first day of RuneScape. This item was discontinued December 2001 after the removal of Thordur and the Black Hole. Due to their rarity, trade volume is very low on the Grand Exchange which does not allow their market price to update often. As a result, Disks of returning's [[Street value]] differs greatly from their [[Grand Exchange]] value.

People that were [[ban]]ned were put into a hole and trapped there until their ban was over. A lot of people got themselves [[banned]] just to see the hole, so [[Jagex]] made a mock hole and created a disk to let players out once they went in and to get out of the Black Hole Players would select the spin option on the Disk.

The mock black hole and disk of returning were removed because of a scam involving convincing players to drop their disk while in the black hole, thus trapping them until assisted out by Jagex. The disks were left in game, but no longer had any use.

On [[9 June]] [[2010]], the inventory image of the Disk of returning changed. The old image was [[File:Disk of returning.png]].
Before the re-introduction of free trade, Disks along with [[Easter egg]]s and [[Pumpkins]], were used as currency to trade up for Partyhats.

During the past year, Disks experienced several sharp fluctuations. They rose from around 200 million coins to peaking at just under 1 billion in a matter of weeks. They have since crashed, but are still more expensive than the pumpkin. Edibles are heavily hoarded due to the ease at which they can be manipulated so this sudden rise in price was most likely due to players 'buying them out'.
