During ANTIQUES ROADSHOW's Miami, Florida, stop, host Dan Elias provides historical background on the birth of Miami, dubbed the "billion dollar sandbar." At the Coconut Grove Convention Center, appraisers encounter a slew of antiques with their own interesting stories, including a pair of German-made porcelain figurines with toy bicycles in tow; a 19th-century glass vase bought at a Paris flea market; and a vintage silver champagne bucket, once featured in an ad for the maiden voyage of an Israeli ship line, appraised at $12,000 to $15,000.
