One thought on “Is this real and/or valuable? Found it lying on the street in NYC”

1. It can be tough to determine the authenticity and value of an item just by visual inspection, especially if it’s something unusual. To assess whether it’s real and valuable, consider these steps:

   1. Examine the Item: Check for any markings, labels, or signatures that might indicate its origin or artist.

   2. Research: Look up similar items online to see if you can find anything comparable in terms of style, age, or maker.

   3. Condition: Consider the condition of the item. Items that are well-preserved generally hold more value.

   4. Seek Expert Opinion: If you still aren’t sure, consider taking it to a local appraiser or auction house. They can provide insights into its authenticity and potential value.

   5. Sentimental Value: Remember that sometimes the story behind how you found the item can be worth more than its market value!
