Antiques Roadshow guest stunned at tiny chocolate bar's valuation
The guest on BBC Antiques Roadshow was left speechless after an expert revealed the huge valuation of a tiny bar of chocolate - that's more than 120 years old
The chocolate bar's significance lies in its age, dating back to 1902, and it was created to commemorate the coronation of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. Lisa Lloyd, an expert on the show, was thrilled when she was shown a small tin containing the chocolate during the episode aired on Sunday, September 1, which was a repeat filmed at Cromford Mills in Derbyshire.
