Gold Palted !

A dinner plate taken along to the Antiques Roadshow as an after-thought has turned out to be a £100,000 record-breaker.
Wendy Jones took the 22-inch meat dish from an old Tesco carrier bag and placed it before a stunned expert on the BBC show.
It was then identified as one part of a 100-piece service commissioned for Frederick the Great of Prussia 260 years ago.
