RK's, real ones, are an investment grade piece. They keep retaining their value and continue to appreciate in value. The trick is to get an authentic one. I agree with others that painstaking research on EK's and RK's is mandatory. Museum "Copies" are spot on anymore. Also in other books i have read, i have learned how fakers can adhere certain adornments that are very hard to detect. There are so many spot on fakes anymore that even experts are getting fooled. Be very careful and study, study, study. Then study more.

and when you have finished studying,study some more its a minefield.
