Inside the Untold Story of the Million-Dollar Treasure “Storage Wars” Stars Overlooked—What They’ll Never Forget
Kastle confirmed that the mask was genuine and valued it at $22,500. He also warned that because it was so old and rare that it could be worth far more than that. In the end, Corey bought the mask from the owner for $30,000.
The Guys Scored Big With This Emblem
When a seller came into the shop with this Polish emblem, Rick wasn’t sure how significant it was or what do with it. He ended up buying it from the person for a mere $6,000, unsure if he had lost or made money. The authenticator who then came to take a look at the emblem determined that it was made in Russia and that it was as close to a Fabergé as you can get.
He noted that the emblem was also made in 1975 when Poland was split into three parts, with the largest being controlled by Russia. In total, the emblem is worth $30,000.
The Book Of Mormon From 1842 Was Bought With Ease
The Book of Mormon was first published in 1830, so when someone came in claiming to have a book from 1842, they had the Harrisons’ attention. Luckily for the Pawn Stars, book expert Rebecca Romney examined the book and confirmed that it was from 1842, making it a fifth edition.
Romney then estimated that the book was worth around $40,000. Even though the book was estimated to be worth so much, in the end, Rick made a deal with the owner and bought it for just $24,000.
16th Century Spanish Gold Was A Rare Find
Somehow, a bar of Spanish gold from 1554 made its way into the shop. Supposedly, the gold bar had been lost in a shipwreck the same year it was made. The owner of the bar had found it in his attic and decided to bring it in to see what he could get for it.
Melted down, the bar would have been worth $24,000, however, still in its original shape, it was easily worth $50,000. The Pawn Stars made a deal and acquired the gold bar for $30,000.
Rick Drove To Florida For A Single Coin
Although not known to everyone, not every deal that’s made is done in the physical shop. At times, the Pawn Stars will set up meetings with private sellers or travel themselves to see specific products. In the case of an octagonal Panama Pacific gold coin from 1915, Rick drove all the way to a coin show in Florida.
The coin commemorates the completion of the Panama Canal and is extremely rare. Estimated around $70,000, Rick talked down the price to $67,000, and sold it to a private buyer he already knew was interested.
Vic Flick’s Guitar From 1961 Was Sold By Vic Himself
Typically, a Fender Stratocaster from 1961 sells for around $20,000 on most websites. However, this guitar was different from the others, because the owner who brought it in claimed that it once belonged to Vic Flick.
Flick is a well-known session guitarist who played on countless popular songs, also teaching students such as Jimmy Page. As it turns out, the man selling the guitar was Flick himself, except nobody knew who he was. Once everything was cleared up, they bought the guitar for $55,000.
The Boys Bought Quite The Car
Another occasion in which Rick left the shop to make a deal was when he went to check out a Ford Roadster Model B from 1932. Bringing his son along for the ride, after seeing the vehicle, the two decided that they needed to have it. The car they looked at was in mint condition and worth a lot of money.
Of course, Rick also had his car guy, Danny Koker, look at the car, and he decided that it was worth around $75,000. After some back-and-forth with the seller, Rick ended up paying $68,250.
One Of 150 Mustangs
There were only 150 of the 2014 Hertz Penske GT Mustang ever produced. On top of that, the first ten of them were given to VIPs and Hertz executives, leaving only 140 available for the public.
Furthermore, it’s the only GT Mustang with a six-speed manual transmission, making it especially rare. Nick asked for NASCAR driver Joey Logano to take him for a test drive, telling Rick that it was easily worth $75,000. After some negotiation, Rick bought the car for $60,000.
The O.J. Statue That Flava Flav Had A Hard Time Parting With
In one famous episode of Pawn Stars, rapper Flava Flav came into the shop with a strange bronze statue of O.J. Simpson. Flava Flav claimed that the statue used to be perched next to Simpson’s pool at his home in Los Angeles. Initially, Flav was looking for $125,000 for the statue, but the Pawn Stars only thought it was worth $80,000.
TMZ later reported that Flav held onto the statue, not taking any offers under six figures for it. He even offered it back to Simpson who refused it. It’s possible he still has the statue today.
