The ticket wasn't in awful condition; it had yellowed somewhat, had a tiny edge at the top, a slight rust mark where the staple was, and a thin old tape removal mark on the spine.

The expert then proceeded to inform the guest of the value of their item.

"I suppose you'd like to know how much it's worth," he said.

The guest replied: "Oh, yes please," slightly nervous.

The expert responded: "£800-£1000."

The guest looked shocked after hearing the value, and thanked the expert.
