Antiques Roadshow Highest Value Collection Ever Appraised On Sunday, appraisers from the PBS hit show "Antiques Roadshow" recorded the highest-value collection ever appraised in the show's 15-year history. The big ticket item: five Chinese carved rhinoceros-horn cups dating to the late 17th or early 18th century, which are worth between $1 and $1.5 million. An Oklahoma resident bought the cups inexpensively in the 1970s, according to a press release from the show's producers. The reason the value of the cups is so high is due to China's growing demand for Chinese antiquities. The episode will air as part of "Antiques Roadshow's" 16th season in 2012. ![]() |

Re: Antiques Roadshow Highest Value Collection Ever Appraised What about the faces of some of the people on Antiques Roadshow, they're told something is worth thousands of pounds and they don't even crack a smile........and that old biddy that bought the 200 year old bible in that was falling apart. They told her it was worthless and if you listened closely you would have heard the HMMMP sound she made when hearing it was more useless and unwanted than 80 grit shithouse paper. ![]() |
