Rivera’s 1904 Piece
In 2012 someone brought in an original piece from 1904 by Diego Rivera, husband of the famous Mexican painter, Frida Kahlo. Its worth was estimated on the show to be around the $1 million region. Although only a few years after that show aired, Rivera’s work became much more popular and a reappraisal was requested by the owner. The second estimation brought the value of this particular artwork to a whopping $2.2 million.

Chinese Teacup Gems
An episode from 2011 had someone presenting a collection of Chinese teacups that were centuries old and carved from rhino horn. They were estimated to be worth as much as $1.5 million. Also, a large variety of half-million-dollar paintings have been appraised on the show. Many an American artist’s works have been featured, including ones by Norman Rockwell and Andrew Wyeth.
