And I've been trying to find out ever since what it is.
APPRAISER: Well, I'll tell you, it is my honor to answer that question for you.
This is what is called a Hadley's Quadrant.
GUEST: Oh.
APPRAISER: The name of the maker is Radford in London.
This instrument dates from around 1710 to 1722.
GUEST: Oh my gosh.
APPRAISER: And what a find.
GUEST: Yes, yes.
APPRAISER: Now, value-wise, you're probably looking at around $1,000.
GUEST: Oh my goodness.
APPRAISER: But believe it or not, its value is based as much on the story as it is who made it and its condition.
