Pawn Stars: THE OLD MAN'S TOP 17 DEALS

I have something special here, a Banky dollar. Oh wow, look at this. It's very nice. Have you ever heard of Banksy? No, well, he's like an artist. You're telling me this is art. This is a swamp. I mean Banksy is a pretty controversial artist. A Banky dollar is basically a doctored £10 note. I'm looking to get a thousand dollars, the minimum amount, maybe 500 dollars, so tell me what you got here, son, it's a piece of art straight from Banks. He creates street art that is obviously vandalism, you're telling me that this guy is famous because he breaks the law, no, he's famous for the political statements that he makes well, he does a lot of political satire, a lot of things about poverty and despair, I think he even He went to Iraq and painted while there was a war, yeah, while he's such a popular artist that when he does graffiti on the side of a wall they sell the side of the wall, okay, I've seen him before with Andy Warhol, the old man .

I may not know who Banky is, but for my generation he is one of the most daring artists. It is difficult to convince the old man that anything new can be worth money. I don't know anything about this Banksy or whatever you call him. To me, how is this not false? It is very similar to a £10 note. Well, first of all, she has the tint of a princess and not Queen Elizabeth. Secondly, it says Banksy of England here instead of Bank of England and thirdly, they all have the same thing. The serial number is the only way this would be considered fake if he went and tried to spend it.

I am here today to sell it as art and that is exactly what it is considered. I have been working in art for many years. Good for me. this is not art this is a forgery these damn kids don't know what the hell they're talking about trying to pass off fake money it's art i'm about to throw chumley out the window sir what are you trying to get out of this? A thousand dollars, hell no, to me it looks like a fake £10 note. I've never heard of this guy and probably won't mind if I do again.

This is a work of art. Boss, you may not be stupid. I'm not going to take your damn word for it, so make the call, let's get someone here, figure it out and go from there, okay, let me call him and have someone else come tell me how much it's worth, they're definitely welcome. I have concerns. that this could be fake, to begin with this is a forgery, so anyone can copy like he did and forge. This piece has something really special for you today. pound note and he painted Princess Diana's face instead of Queen Elizabeth.

They are telling me that this is art for me, it is a counterfeit bill, that's why I called you to explain that it still has value as art, I understood you, so this. The Banksy guy is a street artist, true, but he's really become popular. It's an irony, it's totally countercultural, but it has surely become part of the culture and his works are auctioned. You know, hundreds of thousands of dollars. In fact, I'm starting to get calls from people who have banksies in their homes that have become more of a work of art than ever. Today I learned something.

It's about time you learned something. Oh, shut up, lovely. My definition of fine art is something that is original, something that is thought-provoking and even when Banks was doing the graffiti of it. In my opinion, it was a work of art because it was something that had social and political commentary as well as aesthetic value. It's certainly a fake of a £10 note, but as Banks become more popular, they are now starting to be fakes of the fake floating around. so see if I can authenticate this as a genuine fake. I'm noticing that there is a fairly tight dot pattern, basically a network of dots and that is indicative of the offset lithographic process, so it was done on a press. thousands at a time and the paper is a thicker paper, it's not like cheap copy paper or anything, so it's okay, I think you have a genuine fake, that's amazing, so what do you think it's worth ?

Well, they're not. scarce, I mean there's still quite a bit out there and scarcity really rules the day in terms of value right now, you can find the authentic ones selling between that three hundred to five hundred dollar range, I don't think so, I mean we're looking at Banks' work here, although yes, in the future, they may be more scarce, but right now it is what it is. Thanks Brett, I appreciate it. Part of the appeal and part of the reason people are excited about it and collect it is because they don't. I don't know who he is 'cause he's a bit of a fugitive, tell 'em take care of this, well you heard what he said, what do you think man, what are you looking for now?

Well, he said he three to five, so there we are. I'm going to get 500 no, because that's what I'm going to get from this. I thought he was going to handle this. Oh, shut up, chamboy. Look, I really want to buy this for you, but did you hear what Brett says. How about 300 being 80? He said three to five cans. we do 400 yeah we could do 400 that's the deal let's write you here yeah 400 bucks is a lot for this but how often can you say you had a Banky bill? Hey, how are you doing? How are you doing today?

What are you doing? We have this is the US Navy sextant from the USS Hector from 1941 back then. It is a highly precise instrument. That's how you knew where you were in the middle of the ocean. I use it to find my way home every day. I came to the

pawn

shop today to sell my navy sexton a sexton is a tool they use to navigate ships. I'm here today to sell because I need money, so how did you get it? I found it from an old sailor who had bought it. It is the only one that exists from the USS Hector.

Tell me about the USS Hector. The story is there with the Vulcan. The Hector and Ajax. I was on the USS Ajax. I was in the navy. Ok, and these were three. Ship repairmen who were in World War II in Korea and also in Vietnam were all highly decorated. I have heard about them. I was in the navy, so you were in the navy too. 21 years. You know, I've seen them a million times. I still don't know exactly how they work and practically why I would never have been on a boat. Well, they would go out on deck and look at the

stars

through this and then set the latitude and longitude with these numbers here. people had to know what they were doing this is not something a layman can use and make it work it took a lot of skill to be a navigator put someone like chumway in charge one of these could leave for Hawaii and end up at the north pole So What do you want to do with it, friend?

I need to sell it. Any idea how much you're looking to profit from? Well, because we were both in the navy and we both have good luck and I'll give it to you. You have a deal today, you can have it for 390, thanks for the compliment sir, you have people to collect precision instruments, collect them, but at 390 I don't feel comfortable, I would feel comfortable at 200 for this, that way I can order three shots . The first 275 and through the door I would negotiate with you I would go down a little eh, what is a division? the difference between 200 and 390.

What is that? Oh, I can't do that 250 How about that? Can you go to 260 265 and? I'd be comfortable with 265. Corey, give them the 265. Let's finish strong, thank you. This is a very nice piece, not like that GPS crap people use to get around. What do we have here? This is a world war. ii uh original panoramic photo of the Las Vegas Army Airfield in 1944. It took so many people to fly those planes. This is probably a squadron of all ten aircraft. Look how many people are involved. I have always been fascinated by World War II. I believe in the people who fought in our heroes, we really needed some work on our house so I had to sell some of my collection.

I was hoping to get 500, but I'd probably take 200. So where did you get this? I think I bought it at an antique store. I'm a teacher and this is the kind of thing I would bring to my class if I was talking about World War II and the sacrifice the men made. The guys had to fly at least 25 combat missions. over Germany and in some cases more than half of the boys never returned. I remember my father walking to the front door when he returned home from the war. I was a kid, I felt great. This was a great moment in American history.

I mean, this was a war where literally every person in America did something to contribute. These men went through hell and back to make our country what it is today. That's why they're called the Greatest Generation these days. I can't even get these kids to go to the store and back unless there's something for them, these look like B-17s to me, I'm pretty sure that's what they are, didn't you and Chumley fly in one of those not long ago ? Yes, we flew one in the north. The Las Vegas airport was a little bumpy and rolling, but it was comfortable enough.

I was able to take a nap, Cory, because you can sleep anywhere. It's always great to see photos from World War II and the fact that this one was actually taken in Las Vegas. Vegas makes it perfect for a store, but unfortunately just because it's part of history doesn't mean it's actually worth a lot of money, so how much did you expect to get out of it? I'd like to get 500 for it. to have it, but I'm not going to pay 500, you traveled in one of these, yes, and I can get on a computer right now and print a photo for him, if he wants one so much, I want to be real with you, my man.

I mean, we're talking about maybe 40 50 here, well, you know you have World War II. Las Vegas doesn't look like that anymore, so you know your Las Vegas people will want it. It could reach 400. It would be difficult to sell. I would like to have it just to hang it in the store. I'll raise it to 75, but that's the best price. Corey. How about 300? You will never find one like this. Look, I will do it. Raise the bill to 100 because I would like to have it, but I'm not going to raise it any higher. Either you take the hunter or you go home with him.

How about you meet me halfway? I said I knew you as far as I could. We look good, I guess I'll have to go with that Hey, thank you very much, okay, thanks, have a good day, there's no way I would have taken a hundred dollars, I really think they could have gotten 500 dollars for it, but it's well I'll just have to sell some other stuff to get the money to remodel my house now hey you're back let me guess you have a gun you want to sell you're right Rob it's a gun guy he's coming.

In the store a lot and he always has some type of interesting firearm to sell. Well, what do we have this time? What I have is a 36 caliber savage navy, okay, a savage navy, that's an ugly gun, no, that's not an ugly gun. Rick, that's a navy gun and it's pretty to me because it has something to do with the damn navy that will work. I came to the

pawn

shop today to try to sell my wild civil war navy revolver. It is an extremely unusual design. I keep coming back here because hey, they keep buying my guns, what should I do?

Yes, this is really cool. I've never seen one of these things in person. I haven't even had one in the store. They started making them in 1862. 1861 they are making them right at the height of the war, as long as they can make it different they could make it and sell it and the government would buy it because the government would buy any gun right now, like any businessman if there is money. To do it, they found a way to do it, yeah, that's the gun that turned out, basically, with the middle finger and then shoot with the index finger.

The idea was that it was a good mechanism because you could shoot them a little faster. Not really. I don't see the advantage as a pain in the ass for what it's worth, I mean it's heavy, it's an uncomfortable feeling, it just wants to lean down, one of the silliest designs, that's why I love it, these two fools don't know about what they are talking about. Anything to do with the US Navy is high class, so I assume you want to sell this like the rest, that's what I'm looking to do, right, I don't know how important this screw is, here are just Too many, too many questions I have about this.

Let me call someone. Let me look at it and get an idea of ​​what I can afford. Yes, it's okay, of course it's okay, I'll be right back. I bet I can understand it. Bringing in an expert, he doesn't know how much I know and how much of mine is just smoke, so he needs to bring in someone to make sure he knows what he's going to get. Greg, how are you doing? Greetings, pawnbrokers, how are you today? Yes. Guys call me when they get an antique firearm they want to know more about. They want me to evaluate his condition.

An estimate of value. That kind of things. This is what I would call a proto-double action. It's one of the first. -Action revolvers and the concept was that you could shoot much faster, actually not that much, the gun was very complex so there was a lot of room for mechanical errors and failures, it was not very popular, around 11,000 were sold of the 20,000 manufactured. for the government the rest went to the civilian market because the gun sucked so this is civilian definitely not a government issued gun, the interesting thing is that civilians often transported them to the south and they were also used by thehappy with that number.

I found out that it is worth between five and seven thousand dollars. Yeah, I mean there are a lot of people asking a lot of money for some of the larger products, but it's only a limited market as to who can put this piece in their collection thanks johnny for coming, okay, I appreciate it, See you later, be careful, you see that all the time many people research a piece, but they don't really look at what these pieces are or what they are really looking for at an auction or in a store. Well, you heard what it says, it's worth what your last dollar got, what will you take?

Well, I'd like to get 2000 out of it. Well, I'm not going to go to 2000 because that's a high retail price. I'll tell you what I'll do. Will I give you a thousand dollars? I'm not going to upload any more or you can work on the damn thing. At home I can't afford 15. I'll go to 11, but I'm pushing there because if I get 15. after marketing it and paying my employees, I'm only going to make a couple hundred, well, I think for 11, I think I'll take it. home, well, hey, thanks for bringing it back, no problem when you receive it.

Tired of looking at it, drag it down, come on, you're lucky you still have your job. I'm a little sad that we couldn't make a deal today because I was hoping to get some money for my daughter's wedding, but I thought. If it's going to be worth a little more in 20 years, then I'll bring it back in 20 years. It fits me like a glove. His friend was running around with this guitar like a kid with scissors, so I took it. Everyone here sucks, I mean, yeah. Sometimes I get carried away, but it's not like I've hurt anyone, at least not in a while, who's the ninja now, your friend?
