A toy box trinket for a 4 year old in the United Kingdom turned out to be much more than that in 2011. The family thought the jewels on the brooch they purchased for £20 were fake diamonds, but when Thea Jourdan was getting her engagement ring appraised for insurance, the brooch caught the appraiser's eye. The brooch was once worn by a Russian czarina and Jourdan later sold it for $43,000. |

Stories about people finding historical documents often seem too good to be true but Michael Sparks' story is true. Sparks picked up what he thought was just a reproduction of the Declaration of Independence at a thrift store in Nashville, Tennessee back in 2006. He paid just $2.48 for the document and later found out it was one of 200 copies commissioned by John Quincy Adams in 1820. It was just the 36th copy found and it fetched a price of $477,650 when a Utah investment firm purchased it. |

Back in 2012, a man from West Hampstead in London, found a rare handbag that featured the face of Elvis Presley. John Richard picked up the bag he found at an Oxfam charity store for $30 and later discovered it was a bag made by Irish designer Philip Treacy. Richard brought the bag to a Philip Treacy shop in London and found out it was only one of 10 bags made and designed by Andy Warhol. It's estimated worth is more than $450,000. |

Imagine getting something you like at the thrift store and then discovering there's something else with that. Laura Stouffer, an art dealer and collector, picked up a print of an 1880s painting she liked at a thrift store. Then when she took the painting out of the frame, she uncovered an original movie poster of All Quiet on the Western Front, worth an estimated $20,000. |

She says: ‘First time driving a Ferrari. This truly is the most amazing feeling.’ But traffic cameras on the busy city-centre road show the woman suddenly swerving out of control and slamming head-on into a metal traffic barrier |

Because nobody has as many color & interior trim choices as Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth. When they say it's 1 of 1 ever produced car,that isn't saying much as they were so many choices. |
