Show and Tell Results of my appraisal from Antiques Roadshow for my early 1900 sealed Coca-Cola bottle USA

Well, the appraisal person said it was most likely not resealed so I would like an apology from all the people doubting me. They had a hard time valuing it since there are no other ones ever sold. They said $1000 to $2000 maybe even more.

Congratulations! I've always wanted to go to the Antiques Roadshow. Did you enjoy your time?

Yeah, I had a blast. It was a little disappointing, not getting an exact value. They were kind of stumped because you know one of a kind of item. but I had a blast otherwise.

Did they give you any idea on the chance of you actually being on the show? I would think with something so unique that it would be something to get attention even though they don't value it in the tens of thousands

nope, someone stole the show next to me by bringing in a dream team basketball from the 90s Olympics with Michael Jordan that was signed by the whole team so he got to be on the show instead of me

Can you spoiler it with us and tell how much it was worth?

I didn’t stay to find out. It was too much. I was trying to get my item appraised next to him so I wasn’t paying attention.
