When a Rolex Submariner drops off the counter, Rick loses it. Is there any chance that his proposal will get noticed, or is it a waste of time? Meanwhile, Corey goes a little crazy over a Paul Newman-signed hockey stick. If he tries to make a deal, will he get the cold shoulder? After that, Chum and Santos have a major crush on a deck of Mr. Softee trading cards. And later, Rick tries not to burst into laughter as he checks out some Bolivian thunder mugs at the range.

Season 21 Episode 10

Long before banks, ATMS and check-cashing services, there were pawn shops. Pawning was the leading form of consumer credit in the United States until the 1950s, and pawn shops are still helping everyday people make ends meet. Pawn Stars takes you inside the colorful world of the pawn business. At the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop on the outskirts of Las Vegas, three generations of the Harrison family – grandfather Richard, son Rick and grandson Corey – jointly run the family business, and there’s clashing and camaraderie every step of the way. The three men use their sharp eyes and skills to assess the value of items from the commonplace to the truly historic, including a 16th-century samurai sword, a Super Bowl ring, a Picasso painting and a 17th-century stay of execution. It’s up to them to determine what’s real and what’s fake, as they reveal the often surprising answer to the questions on everyone’s mind, "What’s the story behind it?" and "What’s it worth?"
