Define expensive...in terms of dollar bills...........Penny Marshall has a pretty rich collection of sports memorabilia ...tens of millions of dollars worth........same with collectable cars, a few million here or there. Airplane collectors can roll out a number of millions on specific planes... the top ten Elvis or Beatles memorabilia, or the top five Star trek colletors.......tens of millions of dollars for the top collections. Babe Ruth's baseball bat, 1.5 million dollars. Honus Wagner baseball card ~ 1 million dollars.
And then there are paintings and rare art.... Roy Rogers, John Wayne, acting memorabilia ...mmm.
My bet is meteorites is up there but not at the top possibly because it is not as popular as baseball cards or comic books.
More responses welcome!
