We’ve often wondered what the producers of “Antique Roadshow” would discover if they brought the show to the Florida Keys. Probably not a jade collection from the Qing Dynasty valued at over a $1 million, or a 19th century Navajo Blanket. Here is our best guess …
- Mark Rossi’s 2018 mayoral qualifying check | $225
- Captain Tony original paternity test, one of 32 | $12
- Diana Nyad’s motorized swim fins | $69.99
- Rifle from the conch republic uprising | $3,000
- 17th century 78.45 oz. gold bullion (closely resembling the one formerly on display at Mel Fisher Museum) | $549,000
- The last happy hour draft beer sold for $1.99 in the “good old days.” ($1.99)
- Brick from Fort Jefferson (come on, everybody brings one back) | $1
- Tar ball with BP’s new slogan “Never Again?” | $750
- A Harry S. Truman action figure (wheelchair not included) | $250
- 1880’s ivory lice comb from Key West brothel | $850
- One bottle of Barefoot pinot grigio which made it through Irma at Trailer Ranch by the Sea | still valued at $4.99
- A Calusa Indian arrowhead that proves Mike Puto wasn’t the first inhabitant of Marathon | $20,000
- Ernest Hemingway’s Re-Entry Sticker | $100,000
- The last plastic straw | $250
