1650 Flemish Painting: $190,000
In 2006, a man named Leroy purchased a painting for $3 at a local Goodwill store. His daughter thought the painting was unique and took it to an Antiques Roadshow event. The appraiser was immediately interested in the painting and placed a value on it of $20,000 to $30,000. The family decided to sell the painting in 2012 and were shocked when it fetched a price of $190,000. The painting ended up being a Flemish work of art that dated to around 1650. It’s not the most exciting painting to look at but it sure was worth a ton of money.
