Virginia woman buys a box of assorted rubbish at a flea market for $7.
Included in the box was a painting, she liked the frame.
Turns out to be a Renoir last seen in 1926...
estimated worth: $75,000- $100,000

Paysage Bords de Seine (Landscape on the Banks of the River Seine); Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919)

Renoir found at flea market

Yeah it might be $75,000 at retail.... but I've gotta clean it, store it, find a buyer. Best I can do is $400...Chumlee will write you up.
