Awww....how sweet!!! I teared up watching this! I had a feeling it was going to be high since they were taping it...maybe $10-15K even. But what a astronomical value!!! Good for her!!! You most certainly could tell she was stunned and likely a huge blessing to come to her!! And to think it was sitting in a box in the basement for yrs!!! Luckily it was kept safe n free of damage! Very excited n happy for her! Hope they follow up with her down the road!
Wow! I have a similar hymnal but it is just the words not the notes and is newer (1883) who knew it had a monetary value. It's priceless to me as it belonged to my ancestor.
Sell it to a museum or collector that has the expertise and money to care for it properly. She has no sentimental attachment to the hymnal nor the religion. Let it go to someone who does.
Really and it not just about the money. A private person can't give proper care for such a valuable item. The stress related to such care would bee considerable. Let the pros handle it.
I found one of these in an old church in Idaho. I was just looking it up for the doctrines in the hymns I didn’t realize that it would have been worth that much. It was really good condition too.
I'd really like to know if reactions of this kind are because of the windfall or because of finding out something you kept on to for eons and felt had no value to anyone but you is actually cherished worldwide!
It's crazy to see how life changing that sum of money can be for people but we don't bat an eye when CEO's make millions a day and pay less % in taxes.
@@gavinreid8351 It was a very well-maintained religious book evaluating the Bible's contexts and statement it's fullest form, and because of its age, originality, physical condition, and various authors who written it that good time ago, it was overall valued at $257,000.
She is going to hand it down to one of her kids after she makes a decision. They will have that book sold in days, and the money spent within weeks. People just don't have the same respect as they used to. It's been in the family for over 150 years, they will sell it and go on a cruise and buy a new car without a second thought. Then have nothing left to show for it.
Where would you look books up at. I've tried on line some of the books I have found but most, nothing. German books most of the books ar all 1800's books.
What do I do with it? Why sell it of course to someone who will treasure it and you go on a cruise or pay off your house. It was sitting in your basement dear lady.
"According to Latter Day Saint belief, the golden plates (also called the gold plates or in some 19th-century literature, the golden bible)[1] are the source from which Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon, a sacred text of the faith.[2] Some witnesses described the plates as weighing from 30 to 60 pounds (14 to 27 kg),[3] golden in color, and composed of thin metallic pages engraved with hieroglyphics on both sides and bound with three D-shaped rings.[4] Smith said that he found the plates on September 22, 1823, on a hill near his home in Manchester, New York, after the angel Moroni directed him to a buried stone box. He said that the angel prevented him from taking the plates but instructed him to return to the same location in a year. He returned to that site every year, but it was not until September 1827 that he recovered the plates on his fourth annual attempt to retrieve them. He returned home with a heavy object wrapped in a frock, which he then put in a box. He allowed others to heft the box but said that the angel had forbidden him to show the plates to anyone until they had been translated from their original "reformed Egyptian" language." 1832 IN NEW YORK. IT'S A CULT.
Who do you hand it down to....the buyer of course..I think your ancestors would want you to sell the book and live after...at least for a year or so.lol
Priceless reaction! THIS is why the show is so popular.
Wonderful...one of the sweetest, most genuine reactions ever.
This guy is one of my favorite experts on the show.
Mine too. I love his look, personality, and his knowledge.
He knows his stuff for sure. I would love to know what was in HIS book collection.
What a genuine reaction!
Onomato i see you're a man of culture as well
the best reaction I've seen. Happy for her!
maximus78028 the fakers reaction I've seen.
@@filminginportland1654 Glad your grammar is so terrible so you can be less wrong.
What a heartwarming reaction
That is the most heartfelt reaction I've ever seen on this show. She even looked up to say thankyou .... maybe to the Grandma?
I like this Ladys reaction, she was genuinely moved and that's very sweet 🙏
OMG!!!
This was an absolutely wonderful surprise, totally unexpected!
I can see she was thrilled.
In a flash, she saw she could pay that debt and be free for once. Wonderful for her. Warms the heart. Thank God!
Sometimes I think people actually know the value of what they have and they just pretend to be surprised.
I don't think this lady was pretending.
agreed, that one got her.
Her reaction got me, shoot! That took her breath away!
Awww....how sweet!!! I teared up watching this! I had a feeling it was going to be high since they were taping it...maybe $10-15K even. But what a astronomical value!!! Good for her!!!

I got teary eyed watching her reaction. What a sweet lady.
I love her reaction! Besides the extraordinary price, the reaction is priceless too!
what a lovely lady. People instantly know genuine reactions.
Great reaction lovely to see the us version of our British show which started in 1979
... long pause.. "What do I do with it??" :D So real and beautiful reaction. God bless her.
I love seeing reactions when they have no idea it's worth. Awesome!
Wow! I have a similar hymnal but it is just the words not the notes and is newer (1883) who knew it had a monetary value. It's priceless to me as it belonged to my ancestor.
articowl2 You should really get your hymnal appraised! It could be worth a fortune. 💰💰💰💰💰
I would get it appraised just to know how much to insure it for
Sell it....can't take it with ya
who cares if it belonged to an ancestor, could be worth 15 grand! ancestors are dead
Take it on Pawn Stars, it'll be worth Three Fiddy, no more
Okay, that one caught me off guard. I was expecting a couple grand tops.
"What do I do with it?" - YOU SELL IT!
Sell it to a museum or collector that has the expertise and money to care for it properly. She has no sentimental attachment to the hymnal nor the religion. Let it go to someone who does.
Lol...precisely. Has no use laying around at home....money is good for rainy days.
@Angel Bulldog Hahaha I agree. You can scan and have a copy when ever you to sing the fairy tail
Yeah people seem To pay a lot for these particular fairy tales don’t they.....
Really and it not just about the money. A private person can't give proper care for such a valuable item. The stress related to such care would bee considerable. Let the pros handle it.
Beautiful reaction. She deserves it I'm sure.
LOVING this reaction. beautiful.
Sell that to the Church! They got the money.
Yup they could put in their museum or whatever
Amen!
That's not a bad idea.
This seems like a very sinical and hard hearted comment?? We have freedom of religion.
Ya they can stash it with the “golden plates”
She's not only sweet, she's very pretty.
I like the eye twitch she gave after he said "40....
I missed that, I had to go look. You can see it start to hit her right then
My late grandmother was a Mormon and she would be 110 years old now!
This man's a wizard. Has his own wand and everything
Love her reaction. Fantastic 😀
Alert 🚨 alert family are about to fight for it.
Vultures. Ever seen a house in the South when Grandma dies? Relatives you never knew you had. Blech
Lol
That's when you sell it to the church and DONATE MONEY to help homeless that would re make family made and fight
Her reaction is justified. Ironic the amount of stress she seemed to experience learning of its value. Many seem happier before they learn the value.
This was well said. I can’t imagine that feeling.
My word!!! She is so sweet.
i love her reaction!❤️
Beautiful reaction. :) blessings
she is such beautiful woman with such a lovely reaction.
She was going to be happy with 40 to 50 bucks. Best reaction. This should be on the top of the greatest hits.
I'm really happy to see that maybe these hand me down antiques will get some of the children or grandchildren to college.
ugh, why?
I found one of these in an old church in Idaho. I was just looking it up for the doctrines in the hymns I didn’t realize that it would have been worth that much. It was really good condition too.
2:05. That was so cool! She seems like a lovely lady. I hope she sold it and headed off to Barbados.
Bless her heart
Awww bless her heart
I’m goinna church Sunday!
Ken Sanders looks like a majestic wizard. Hope hes doing ok!
I like this guy, he never low balls anyone
Hallelujah!
Brilliant genuine reaction and she never said are you joking like some do
As if they would joke about something like that.
People don't mean that literally, it's just they have trouble believing some of the high valuations
She said: "My Father's Dad's Mother..." so...Great grandmother? Anyway--neat hymnal, and A LOT more valuable than I would have imagined...
Yeah, but we each have four great-grandmothers, so specifying the lineage is still relevant
Yes.
Don't hand it down, sell it, sell it, SELL IT! Wtf is wrong with people???
Id look to sell that book so fast once I could get a good contract to minimize any possible fees
I talked to Ricky from Pawn Stars he said he would give you $100.00 in cash,not a penny more!
Rick would give her $25 and he's taking all the risk. I mean he's gotta get it framed and it could sit around for two years.
MORMON SWAG!
Sold!!
I'd really like to know if reactions of this kind are because of the windfall or because of finding out something you kept on to for eons and felt had no value to anyone but you is actually cherished worldwide!
So many people exclaim 'Oh My God' these days it makes me cringe ..Her 'Oh My Gosh' was totally refreshing :-)
Ok, I guess I'm going to start checking the book sections at Goodwills when I go...
She's wondering What to do with it? Sell it! Pay off all your bills and invest some money!
It's crazy to see how life changing that sum of money can be for people but we don't bat an eye when CEO's make millions a day and pay less % in taxes.
“What do I do with it?”
SELL IT !
Nice emotion
🙏
Is this from the Bellows Falls in Vermont?
I found a book of a similar agenda, worked out it was worth $247,000. I'm an atheist, and shall preserve this book.
James William Steven Parker by that do you mean a Bible? Or a Quran? Also why would you keep a book worth 250k if you're an atheist?
I don't care about it's religious elements, just it's value.
@@kimjong-un1136 yes, but what is it ?

its worth what buyer will offer
Gandolf? That's the Eldar wand I'm sure!
let the choir sing!
Omg.. we have all kinds of books, I have a book just like this..
the words familial, paste-down and safely.......nice
I think she was asking, how do I sell it?
How would rate for this reaction? 2:09
She is going to hand it down to one of her kids after she makes a decision. They will have that book sold in days, and the money spent within weeks. People just don't have the same respect as they used to. It's been in the family for over 150 years, they will sell it and go on a cruise and buy a new car without a second thought.

1844 is the most important date in the history of the universe after the crcifixtion. Just look it up on wikipedia.
SELL IT!!!!
Sell it to the highest bidder!!
I would of liked to know how many are still in existence.
Randall Baker me too.
Where would you look books up at. I've tried on line some of the books I have found but most, nothing. German books most of the books ar all 1800's books.
Try: worldcat.org
Enormous searchable database of almost every library in the world, all languages, including works published centuries ago.
“I would offer you like $500.”
- Rick from Pawn Stars, probably
What do I do with it? Why sell it of course to someone who will treasure it and you go on a cruise or pay off your house. It was sitting in your basement dear lady.
Ohhh Bellows Falls.. I thought he said, Devil's Balls.
_THAT_ would've been an entirely different show.
I’m looking for all of the “it belongs in a museum!” comments. 😂🤣
Come on lady - get it together.
ha, I wasn't expecting that valuation.
Would have hilarious if the guy went: 40 to 50.... Dollars.
LOL
I’m reading comments before seeing the “episode”. I really hope she gave him the boot and suggested multiple wives was wrong.

1832 IN NEW YORK. IT'S A CULT.
"What do i do with it?"
Me: Sell it to the next mormon people that knocks on my door.
You actually think missionaries actually be that kind of money?
The LSd church?
Who do you hand it down to....the buyer of course..I think your ancestors would want you to sell the book and live after...at least for a year or so.lol
Wow
I feel her reaction I'd done the same thing.
Omg 😱
Oh my gosh, really!?
Yes.
You don't hand it down to anyone. You sell that thing, yesterday.
check please
She looks terrified at first.
That one time Mormonism paid off.
her: *super emotional* "omg reallly?!?!
Him: *very non enthusiastic* yes
I clicked this video because I thought its about the "LSD CHURCH" and was wondering what this is.
Dude you're trippin' 😉
"Who do I hand it down to?". Give me a break...
