Such a wonderful legacy left by your grandmother - particularly enriching to realize the immense value in these heirlooms. A stunning collection indeed.

What a stunning collection, I wish they had shown us more of the pieces in detail. Worth a lot more than that now.

In the year 2000 when this was filmed the average price of gold was $279 per tr.oz. Now in 2023 it is a little over $2000 per tr.oz. Even accounting for inflation every item shown here would be worth about 4x-6x the 2000 value just for the metals.

I hope she didn't sell any. Those are truly things you pass down. AMAZING collection and hope she adds to it.

Probably worth 20x more than that now, considering this was filmed in 2000.

Hope she saved them all. Worth over 10x that now. Will only go up. Amazing collection

Hope she still has it and passes it on!

It’s beautiful to see these amazing treasures being passed down to future generations. So many of these are sold off for the monetary value. I hope she kept them and will be passing them on to the next generation

That is so exciting to have a piece of your families history!! I would be more excited to have had my mother, grandmother and great grandmother, share their knowledge of where each piece of jewelry came from and the history of it. Thankfully you didn't have your inherent stolen from you by someone else who thought they eere entitled to it.

Probably more like a £100,000 in todays valuation

I wonder how much the box itself is worth, I have one very similar. 2 secret compartments.

More than that!!

Beautiful collection. We love John Benjamin - he knows everything about jewelry.

Undervalued. Even for the year 2000.

What a beautiful collection ❤

very nice 2 c old stuff. y.ladies collection.

Cute kid. Good for her

I hope she keeps it, adds to it and has as long a life as her Grandmother and that she in turn passes it onto her grand children.

I think she would be wise to keep that as a family herloom

What a feast for the eyes!

ARS in Great Britain: " Here we have the true and actual sword of St. George...hilt of solid gold, encrusted with cabochon jewels and pearls, still bearing his fingerprints, and the blade showing the notch caused by the dragon scales when it struck down the beast....1200 hundred quid."

Amazing collection.

I hope she kept it and got into the periods the jewellery was originally from.

Pretty cool

Goodness me she says....not thanks Grandma, you're the best!

Nice collection and the box is equally great.

Как хорошо. Когда есть наследство )) еще лучше если у тебя есть возможность , передать это наследство своим внукам!

Awesome Keep it 😊

I have totes and totes of jewelry that needs to be sorted.... After my house was broken into and they stole my whole entire jewelry box then I had my daughter and I started hoarding jewelry and I would buy bags of jewelry and things like that I know there's some really expensive pieces in there I know I found a 18 karat gold multi-colored sapphire bracelet like a tennis bracelet a 14 karat gold diamond tennis bracelet a pair of diamond earrings that were valued at like $4,000 I gave to my mother on top of other unusual pieces and my husband said to put it all on the internet for $500 I said you're insane there's no way even if I took some of the silver plaques and bowls I could probably get 500 bucks easy for a couple pieces just in their weight... What's worse is I love all the stuff that's in there and don't want to get rid of it I guess it makes me kind of crazy if I had stuff like this I would wear it I think it's beautiful and it tells a story every piece of jewelry that I wear I remember where I got it and who gave it to me or how much it was and what I was doing that day it's a memory that's engraved in my mind and I think that jewelry carries energy especially pieces that never come off

I hope she keeps this as a family treasure.. Amazing legacy..

Totally missed the hidden compartment

It's worth MUCH more than his estimate. Much more. Those are one of a kind pieces of jewelry of very high quality if they're in real gold. I'd be willing to pay her an arm & a leg for those jewels. 🎉

😮God bless your golden halos happy holidays welcome to the rainbows of heaven on earth and then God bless everything seen and unseen

Sounds so much better with an English Accent. They may be worth that much but might be lucky to get half of that.

Shed frighten even the worst ghost. 👻👻👻👻

10k back then now probably 100 of millions

Goodness gracious me. Im going to start saying that more often And I’m from New York.

I believe it’s worth much more.

Only £8,000?

hope she kept them all..

Grandma was hoping it’d make her more lady like.. 😂

Beautiful and atomic proof - Utah goldbacks are where its at.

That chain with the little hand with the little ring! I would like to know all the little things on the top of it!

I am Groot!

Grama did very well...

Why so Low price of Gold should make it worth More? Heck melt it Down!

✔️

Suppressed he didn’t go over the coral or perhaps enamel pieces in the right hand side

Tempting to either sell it all or keep it all. Who couldn't use the money, and who wouldn't want to continue owning it?

price of gold is worth about 6.5X what it was when this was filmed, wow

I think he was estimating the value too low ,especially since the ring was engraved in 1849. I think if it were appraised in the states the value would be much greater . He must be doing that to make an offer ,I hope she gets another opinion .

I wouldn’t get rid of that for $8k to save my life

Whats sad is usually people who inheretthings of value and land often dont inhert the knowledge of how to make money with land and usually end up selling being short sighted Imagine if all our inheritance grew from generation to generation wirh the knowledge of how to hold onto wealth

just remember folks, don't pass down anything to your children or relatives because they'll eventually pawn it or get it appraised to then pawn it or sell it.

I hope she never sold it as it’s worth xxx more now

Sounds like he was looking to steal this jewelry! Lol

and of course love when you decide to sell it off you will be required to pay 60% tribute to the Queen !

I wouldn't want mourning jewelry in my home.

Wonder how many times that chest was stolen.

easily 6 figures now

There is much more value here on just Gold content alone ..

Honestly makes mea little sad seeing how excited she is with how much everything is worth, in my mind this is a "never sell" item

that's kinda sad that her grandmother handed it down to her only for her to sell it for about 10,000 lbs, i mean it's not that much, i would have kept it in the family to pass it down.

I hope she didn't sell them

That today 2023 15k to 20k

how is the necklace worth 6-800 pounds, the weight in gold is worth more than that...

she kinda look like gojo

ITS NOT A MUFF CHAIN!

I want to know if those were collected or family pieces purchased to commemorate passing of a loved one. The genealogist in me needs to know.

Hope she decided not to get rid off them somebody else cannot appreciate it as much as what she does and to be in your family that alone tells you keep it. Money will be gone in a short time and then you don't have anything to show!!

Now she can pay her electricity bill

I do hope she didn’t go and sell them.

those prices are absolute bullshit even for a pawn shop

Lol . Sapphire, pearls, gold .. simple

She looks suspicious is you ask me ☠

Lemme guess, it's q British video?

Under valued..Ya think

Junk. Who weres that? For real now?

They will all be in Cash Converters now after her ex blew all the dough on crack

she dont agree with them prices forreally forreal...

She seems like the type who would immediately pawn it all.

Filmed in 2000, could buy a house with 8k

I don't care that this was filmed 24 years. That was a dirty, lowball appraisal. This guy has pawnstars written all over his face

I don't believe this guy knows what he's talking about....

such a scam roadshow.. hes basically just qualifying the items based on the gold value at the time..ignoring the fact its nearly 200 years old and the scarcity..

Opium and slavery were quite lucrative back in the day. Ahh thanks Grandma

No doubt. She’ll be enthused. Doesn’t look like she has 2 bob to rub together

Ah com on, that is pretty nasty.

It would not surprise me that this programme was designed to systematically strip the public of anything valuable for the 1% Committee ( The extreme rich who run the planet)

Roadshow is a joke-a reality show.
