I was excited to start watching this show and when I actually got to watch a few episodes I realized 95 percent of the "artifacts" were essentially garbage. Many of the found items looked to me like worthless, rusted junk or trinkets, even before the experts explained that they were worthless, although they used more gracious words. I could not bear to watch anymore, it was tediously boring and I was very surprised to see so many unimportant items make it on the show. If you want to see a show with valuable items and artifacts, watch pawn stars, even though they all re-runs, they are astronomically more interesting.
