If you put The 52 Mantle, the 1795 gold coin and a half million dollar piece of art in three storefronts next to each other sideshow style charging some minimal bit to see it - Which would have the longest line?

The likely answer isn't the one I like, but that's sort of the point.

Very interesting, I know I would be in the art line everyday and twice on Sunday. 52 mantles are far from rare and I couldn't care less about a chunk of metal but that piece of art is a different story.
