Beethoven Sheet Music Discovered in Connecticut Home, Sold for $100,000
"I’ve been in a lot of homes and seen hundreds of things, but this will be one of the most memorable moments of my career,” appraiser Brendan Ryan told Connecticut's Greenwich Time over the weekend. "This" was the discovery of a 215-year-old original piece of Ludwig van Beethoven's sheet music, discovered in the home of a woman looking to unload some of her stuff.
And how much did it go for, this legendary document? $100,000. Might seem like a lot to you, might seem like a confusingly trifling sum.
