The high value of this golden turtle, as high as 2.8 billion, aroused the curiosity of the audience. The results of the expert's appraisal will reveal the true value of the golden turtle and the final outcome of the matter.
Let's look forward to this shocking treasure appraisal process!
Let's dive into the full picture of this incident and see what the experts have to say in the end. China has a history and culture of 5,000 years, giving birth to a splendid Chinese civilization, the most representative of which is a variety of precious antiques and classics.
After thousands of years, countless precious antique calligraphy and paintings are scattered among the people, some of them were destroyed in the war, some disappeared because of their age, but more of them are regarded as heirlooms by folk collectors and passed down from generation to generation.
With the development of social economy, some private collectors for various reasons to take out their family heirlooms for identification, this antique craze began to rise in China.
Each David TV has also launched various treasure appreciation programs one after another, watching the baby double in value after expert identification, and many people have begun to search for their old objects to see if they are also treasures.
At a time when the trend of antiques was prevalent, Shaanxi Satellite TV also launched a treasure appreciation program "Huashan Commentary", and specially hired several treasure experts to identify private collectors.
This program has achieved very good results, attracting many private collectors, who have brought their antiques to the program team, hoping that experts can identify them.
In a certain episode of the program, the host introduced a plainly dressed old man, who walked onto the stage with vigorous steps**. The audience's attention was drawn to the wooden box in his hand, and the host was no exception.
The host asked the uncle what was in the box, and the uncle didn't sell it, but opened the box directly. Inside the box was a golden turtle, and the audience speculated about its value.
The host calmed down the audience's discussion and asked the uncle how he got this collection. The uncle explained that his surname was Hu and he was from Taiyuan, Shanxi, and that this golden turtle was his family's ancestral treasure.
The host asked him why he participated in this show, and the uncle answered the host.
Uncle Hu's son failed in business and owed a huge amount of debt, and in order to help his son, he decided to sell one of the family heirloom antiques. He learned that the experts of the show could give an estimate, so he came to the show with antiques, hoping that the experts would give a good result.
After receiving the antique, the experts carefully observed every detail, while the audience waited anxiously. More than ten minutes later, the expert returned the antique to Uncle Hu, and the atmosphere was extremely tense, because the final answer was about to be revealed.
The expert spoke, and after thorough research, he revealed a shocking fact whose meaning even an audience with no knowledge of archaeology could understand. However, the next expert's words stunned the audience and Uncle Hu.
After waiting for the discussion at the scene to subside, the expert spoke again, announcing that although the golden turtle was genuine, it needed to be donated as soon as possible to avoid disaster. Uncle Hu was dissatisfied with this, and he explained that this golden turtle was his family heirloom, and he was unwilling to donate it.
If it were you, would you pay it? Uncle Hu's words made the expert fall silent, and the host hurriedly interrupted the topic and asked Uncle Hu how this golden turtle became his family heirloom.
The host's words eased the atmosphere, and Uncle Hu also responded after hearing it. This golden turtle was passed down from Uncle Hu's great-grandfather to his grandfather, then to my father, and then to me, and my father told me before his death that this was actually a Duracell turtle, which was worth a fortune.
From Uncle Hu's words, we can see that this golden turtle has been passed down in his family for four generations, so many people think that the expert's request just now is a bit excessive, after all, this golden turtle is someone else's family heirloom treasure, why should someone hand it over in a word?
However, after talking about the origin of this golden turtle, Uncle Hu continued, In fact, before my last show, someone had already asked me to buy this golden turtle, but I didn't agree.
The host was curious about this and asked who the buyer was and what he was giving **. Uncle Hu was quick to respond, and according to him, the incident happened more than a decade ago.
At that time, Uncle Hu received a mysterious **, and the person on the other end said that he was willing to buy this golden turtle.
Sky-high price of golden beetles"Shocked the audience, 2.8 billion! Most people struggle all their lives beyond reach. After Uncle Hu heard this number, he was shocked and decided that the other party was a **, and hung up decisively**.
However, the value of the golden turtle has always been haunting Uncle Hu's heart, and he began to secretly consult antique lovers and buyers, and finally judged a ** by himself. Even if it is 60 million, it is a lot of money for ordinary people, and the audience enthusiastically discussed the true value of the golden turtle.
Faced with the ancestral golden turtle of Uncle Hu's family, the host asked the expert about its market value. The expert replied that according to the appraisal, the market value of this golden turtle is not high, let alone 2.8 billion.
Its greatest value lies in its historical research value. The expert's words aroused the interest of the audience and Uncle Hu, and the host asked again about the origin of the golden turtle. The expert replied that this golden turtle is actually the seal of a certain ** in ancient times, which is the embodiment of the ancient "seal" system in our country, and has a strong political symbolic significance.
He identified the golden turtle as a product of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and may have been the seal of a person who served as a "general of the Chinese army" in the Eastern Han army.
Generally speaking, such antiques are very rare in the market, unless they are excavated artifacts. At the scene, Uncle Hu and the others understood what the experts meant, and the ** of this golden turtle may not be very formal.
After expressing his opinion, the expert said to Uncle Hu again, according to these judgments, Uncle Hu felt very angry again, why did he ask me to turn it in? The more Uncle Hu thought about it, the more angry he became, and once again resolutely rejected the expert's proposal.
Uncle Hu firmly believes that this is an heirloom, which was passed down by his grandfather's grandfather and has been passed down in the family for four generations. He has a deep affection for this treasure, as he needs to use the proceeds from its sale to pay off his son's debts.
So, without getting a concrete estimate from the experts, he decided to leave with the family heirloom. His heart was filled with anger because he felt that the experts had no authority to deal with his treasure.
