how you doing son fine what do we got here  

this is a book that belonged isaac newton it  was printed in 1546. sweet that's pretty cool  

did you know who isaac newton was he  said everything goes up must come down

that's one way of putting it i guess

i decided to come into the pawn shop today  to try and sell my book that belonged to  

isaac newton's library amazingly enough i found  it wrapped up in a box in bubble wrap that was  

in with my father's things i don't know what the  book is worth but if it did belong to isaac newton  

it should be worth thousands everyone has heard  the story about the apple falling on newton's head  

and that's the way he figured out gravity that  never happened all he saw was an apple fall off  

the tree somehow the story got changed over the  years what's the book about uh it's about geology  

and mining that newton was very much into it  doesn't look like it's in english it's in uh  

latin it's very interesting piece isaac newton  was one of the greatest thinkers of all time he  

figured out gravity improved the telescope figured  out a funny type of math that we call calculus  

the man definitely knew a thing or two how come  you think i was a newton on this boat well if we  

open up the front cover this is the book plate  for isaac newton it shows the case location  

and barnsley park which was in england where  the book was stored and these turned corners  

are a thing that isaac newton did to a lot  of his books when he wanted to save a page  

i imagine a book that's old is pretty valuable but  if eyes and you'd known it the sky is the limit  

you want to punt it sell it i would like to sell  it do you have any idea what it would be worth  

i having a clue i can assume that it's real  but i'm not that knowledgeable on books  

what's your god tell you boss what my gut tells  me don't count when it comes to something like  

this to me so i'm going to call an expert in  and we'll go from there for if this book is real  

it's worth a lot of money it'll work all right  thank you very much thank you i'm really excited  

to hear what the appraiser says to find out  what this book could be worth what's going on  

i own academy fine books here in las vegas i've  been in the book business for over 30 years well  

what would you like to know about  this book i need authentication and  

did it belong to newton well we can see the  book was published in 1546 by george agricola  

different minerals into gold how can you mean  right yes isaac newton was very interested in  

alchemy back when this book was written  people thought alchemy was witchcraft  

so only the higher educated people knew about  this book now there's a little bit of bad news

this is not the original binding this  book was restored it was re-backed this  

was repaired probably done in the 1700s  the book play is from newton's library  

this number here j9-s7 is newton's shelf number  where he would have stored the book so this book

was owned by isaac newton great  

that's good news that's just phenomenal you do  not see this book every day this is a classic  

that's all great but what kind of value do we have  on this thing well i think this book wood retail  

it has a value of twenty thousand dollars wow wow  yes very nice find your father had very good taste  

yes he did well thank you for coming in this book  was owned by isaac newton what more can i say  

one of the greatest scientists of all time  so what are you trying to get out of this huh  

how about 15. ain't no way if you could  live with 5 000 that's what i'll pay

ah that's that's too low you can't do 10. no 5 is  where i'd want to be in this could you do seven

i'll split it with you at six

i can't take less than seven you know  if i give you seven for it i won't have  

money for dinner tonight if you give  me seven for it i'll buy you dinner

sounds like a plan thank you come on  over i'll get somebody to write it up  

i made seven thousand dollars on the book i think  it could be worth more but it's a great price  

i'm glad that they're gonna enjoy it
