In the last few years, the collectible market record books have been rewritten and then rewritten again as bidders push the highest prices even higher. The action has been so fast paced that it's difficult to keep track of the prevailing top results. So, we took it upon ourselves to compile the industry's first comprehensive record board, featuring the record prices paid for just about every collectible asset or memorabilia category you can think of. In the table below, you'll find mostly auction records, but where we know of record-setting private sales, we've included them as well and denoted them as such.
If you're wondering what's the most expensive car ever sold, then look no further. It's the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe, and you'll find it in the table below. What's the most expensive artwork ever sold? It's Salvador Mundi. It sold for $450,300,000, and you guessed it - it's in the table a few scrolls away. Point is - you don't have to ask anymore; it's all right at your fingertips. We'll be updating it and adding to it frequently, so be sure to add it to your bookmarks for quick access whenever you need it.
