Top 7 Most Expensive Antiques You Probably Own Too

6. Books and comics

Old comics are a real treasure, and if you have some in your attic, you need to see if you can sell them. Maybe you bought them for a few pennies decades ago, but now some of them can be sold for a lot of money.

Believe it or not, old comics are one of the most expensive antiques. For example, the first comic that featured Superman sold on eBay for a few million dollars in 2014. Usually, the comics that are the most expensive are those where a new hero or villain is introduced.

But comics are not the only ones that can help you make some quick money. Old books, especially those that are popular collections from your childhood, can be sold for a lot of cash.

Early editions, rare editions, and signed copies are generally the most expensive. Potter books are still very popular, and people will still buy them even if they are not in the best condition.

    Many people collect old records and go to Salvation Army store or the library’s annual book sale. When you donate your records you can deduct amount on your income tax if you use govt approved charity. The Salvation Army and Goodwill can tell you how much to deduct for each record.
