Why Not Invest in Old Hats

Napoleon

by Fred Fuld III

Here’s a different type of collectable, hats.

And now you have your opportunity. Napoleon Bonaparte’s hat will be auctioned off by Bonhams with an estimate between $140,000 and $180,000. However, many believe it will sell for over $2 million, as one of his hats sold for $2.2 million at a previous auction seven years ago.

As a bonus, the hat has Napoleon’s DNA in it.

The auction will be held in London on October 27.
