Most antiques dealers are knowlegable in all things. Most have expertise in a limited topic and guess or use different guide to price other items. If they buy large lots of mixed merchandise they might let some go cheap to cover the expense of the initial purchase. As a retired antiques dealer I often bought a box of things then sold one item to get my money back then played with the rest. Antique shops are a great place to make a score.

Meant to say they are NOT knowlegable in all things.

Try an antique mall I had one person mark two 3 cent pieces (nickel) as silver and then those were priced at $5 each. It is amazing what you can find if you look.
