A guest who appeared on the Antiques Roadshow with a statue bought at an event 10 years ago for just £1.50 was told the artifact that could have been worth £250,000 was actually worth just £1.50.
Expert Ronnie Archer-Morgan was excited when he first saw by the item the guest brought in for the BBC Sunday-night show where undiscovered treasures are explained and valued. He said: "When you unwrapped this, my heart really skipped a beat because it's one of my favourite tribal African figures."
The man told Ronnie he bought the figure at an event in Cambridge 10 years ago, reports The Echo. He said: "It was right among the junk and it cost me the grand total of £1.50.
