  • - Well, I've never

  • It's between 40 and 50 million years old.

  • If this thing is genuine, there's no question, I want it.

  • Ah [bleep].

  • This sucks.

  • Dude, I'm disappointed.

  • I have my doubts.

  • Well, it's a bad day now.

  • But I have to be cautious.

  • There is a ton of fakes out there.

  • What we got?

  • It's a baby rattle from the early 1800s.

  • A baby rattle.

  • It's sterling silver, got the whistle and some bells on it.

  • The kids would teethe on this end of the pearl.

  • Is that why people had such bad teeth back in the day?

  • Must've been.

  • RICK: Well, let me take a look.

  • If you look at the hallmark on it, it's a later hallmark.

  • It's from 1860 to, like, 1890, so we know

  • it's not really early stuff.

  • They used, like, a pewter solder,

  • which is like a copper and tin.

  • It's not a silver solder because you can see it

  • turning green right in there.

  • Really?

  • OK, well, here's my opinion of it.

  • It's fake.

  • Really?

  • There's people that are faking baby rattles?

  • People fake everything, OK?

  • It looks like it's been reproduced by somebody.

  • It just doesn't look right.

  • CUSTOMER: OK.

  • I'm going to pass.

  • CUSTOMER: I think he's wrong because I think they wouldn't

  • put that big a piece of pearl on something that was faked,

  • and I don't see why somebody would

  • fake something that unique.

  • I have a Babe Ruth baseball card.

  • Where did you get this?

  • DEREK: I found it in our shed in our backyard.

  • RICK: You just found it in a shed?

  • It was in a lockbox.

  • It was my grandfather's.

  • Do you have an idea what you wanted for it?

  • $65,000.

  • RICK: This is the big thing with a Babe Ruth baseball card.

  • They've been faking these things since the '40s and the '50s,

  • so I'm not going to say it's real until I

  • have someone else look at it.

  • You got an old Babe Ruth card.

  • Man, you got to be kidding.

  • This is just awesome.

  • So is it real?

  • We're going to find out right now, man.

  • All right.

  • What we're looking for, we need

  • to analyze the paper stock and just overall feel and texture.

  • Now as far as the value on this, nothing.

  • What we have here is not a real card.

  • The whole texture's off, the coating on the surface,

  • and especially the printing.

  • Even though the technology was pretty weak back then,

  • it was a lot more clear than what it appears

  • on the Babe Ruth card here.

  • So this is without a doubt a reprint.

  • Ah [bleep].

  • $65,000, that close, but no cigar, you know,

  • I'm just disappointed.

  • So I have some poetry here written by Jimi Hendrix.

  • COREY: So how'd you get this?

  • I started working with a relative of Jimi, Ricky Hendrix

  • here.

  • I spent a lot of money promoting these guys

  • and I became part of the family with them,

  • and so they gave me this poetry.

  • I'll tell you what, I'll have someone check it out.

  • Sounds good.

  • This is what we got.

  • It's supposed to be some poetry by Jimi Hendrix.

  • OK, well, clearly we got a situation

  • where we're dealing with a--

  • a felt tip pen.

  • Almost all the poems or lyrics I've seen of him

  • has been done with a ballpoint pen.

  • Another thing we have to look at is the letter structures.

  • The capital I has a very squiggly line from the top bar.

  • That's not something I've seen before.

  • It's usually block type of lettering.

  • Let's take a look at the signature itself.

  • The handwriting is about the same size of the signature.

  • In every case, it's three or four times

  • larger, much more flamboyant.

  • The last name seems to be, you know, printed type style.

  • He would always write in cursive.

  • I'm seeing a lot of different problems with it,

  • and I can guarantee you that this is 100% not authentic.

  • Yeah, I'd like to sell a picture of Mary and Abraham

  • Lincoln from, I believe, 1863.

  • RICK: So how much do you want for this?

  • I feel it's one in a million, so I'm asking a million.

  • Whoa.

  • So I can call someone and take a look at it.

  • So here we go.

  • Gorgeous.

  • Do you mind if I take a look at it?

  • Absolutely.

  • Facial comparison software.

  • You can see that this woman has sort of different eyebrows.

  • I mean, I don't want to be difficult here,

  • but I feel I'm an expert.

  • I look for other things besides just face.

  • I look at the clothes. I look at the background.

  • I check-- - Yes, so do I.

  • This is your career.

  • You have a right to discredit yourself.

  • A lot of people come to me saying that they have--

  • They'll be coming to me in 10 years.

  • I'm-- honest to God.

  • So your opinion is it's not real.

  • It's not.

  • I've got this old Colt revolver.

  • It's been in my family, and I was looking

  • to see what I could get for it.

  • You know, the condition is really nice on it,

  • and I'd really like to get a buddy of mine

  • down here to take a look at it.

  • All right, the first thing off the bat,

  • these are usually numbered.

  • Yeah, but it's numbered inside.

  • If you take apart this piece right here,

  • you'll see the-- the number.

  • This?

  • Yeah.

  • OK.

  • OK.

  • There you go.

  • Hmm.

  • Well, I've never seen one of these numbered here,

  • this connector rod.

  • I can just tell you I don't like the way

  • the numbers are stamped.

  • They're usually marked right here.

  • It's supposed to also say "US" below the number.

  • If for some reason I'm wrong about all these other things

  • and it's still an original set from Colt,

  • it should at least fit together really, really well.

  • You know, it's functional.

  • You could take it to the range and shoot it.

  • But it's not a good fit.

  • COREY: So the stock's not worth anything?

  • No.

  • [grumbles]

  • I got something I'd like to sell.

  • I think it's a little bit older than dirt.

  • It's between 40 and 50 million years old.

  • So what I have is a piece of Baltic amber

  • with a tarantula in it.

  • CHUMLEE: I actually have a gemstone expert here.

  • - All right. - Hold on.

  • Jeff!

  • What's up, man?

  • Piece of Baltic amber with a tarantula.

  • He's got some paperwork.

  • It's a tarantula?

  • Yeah.

  • Tell me about this paperwork.

  • Where did you get this from?

  • Yeah, I sent it off to Berkeley and

  • to the entomology department.

  • Honestly, I don't think this would be the correct test

  • to define if this is Amber or not,

  • but who I do trust would be GIA.

  • They are the world's foremost authority in gem grading

  • and gem identification, and this is

  • where I would send it to see if it's actually natural or not.

  • If you want, you can pay for us to send it.

  • OK.

  • Does it cost a lot to do that?

  • JEFF: It costs about 200 dollars to send it away.

  • Well, that sounds good.

  • I'll do that.

  • RICK: Chum.

  • Yeah?

  • You helped this gentlemen?

  • Oh yeah, this guy.

  • Jeff probably got the results back.

  • So what did the test results say?

  • Would you like to do the honors?

  • Yeah, let's read this.

  • OK.

  • They say it is plastic.

  • What?

  • Plastic.

  • MADISON: I was really surprised that I

  • have a fake piece of amber, and I'm also out $200.

  • This sucks.

  • [music playing]

- Well, I've never
