On “Pawn Stars” they don’t just deal with rock memorabilia and trinkets. On the most recent episode an 1842 edition of the Book of Mormon was brought into the shop. And the value of the book is turning heads. Rebecca Romney, a rare book consultant, appraised the book at $40,000.
Just caught the Book of Mormon @pawnstars episode, too. It amazes me to see a book like that survive. Was a treat to see. — Rebecca Romney (@rebeccaromney) October 10, 2014

The segment also shares some of the history of the Mormon church at the time.
