Pawn shop experts is a reality show that features the Harrison family and their team of experts. The experts are called in when they need help assessing an item’s value and authenticating it. These guys deal with some pretty amazing things, from rare coins to hot air balloons and even cars. However, these are just the tip of the iceberg as people bring in all sorts of weird items to the shop.

Most of the time, the Harrisons and their team are able to deal with most of the items without outside help. However, some of the bigger items require a bit more expertise. The bigger the item, the more important it is to get it right the first time. If a seller brings something in that is phony, or stolen, the pawn shop can end up losing everything they have invested in it.
