Under the hammer this week is a World War I naval sextant made by Brandise and Company in Brooklyn for the U.S. Navy.
The item is in good working condition and comes boxed with all the original components.
As antique nautical instruments are proving very popular collectables, Justin is expecting some competitive bidding.
Bidding starts at $900
Niccole bids: $1650
Gordon bids: $1600
Adrian bids: $1650
The final hammer price of $1400 surprised the panel this week, but of course Gordon wasn’t too upset.
As this is the final segment for this series, Andy reveals how the panel went throughout the year with their bidding.
Adrian has won 12
Niccole has won 15
Gordon has won 18
This makes Gordon the winner for the third consecutive year.
