Antiques fans queued down the street to have their heirlooms valued in aid of a Worcester hospice.
Hundreds of people turned up to the Antiques Roadshow-type valuation at Hereford Town Hall to raise cash for Acorns Hospice in Bath Road.
A team of experts from Shrewsbury-based Halls teamed up with Hereford mayor Robert Preece, who has chosen Acorns as his charity this year.
Some people travelled from as far away as Worcester to have items valued at the event, which raised £640 for the hospice from a £2 charge for each item valued.
The most valuable item assessed by Halls experts Jeremy Lamond, William Lacey, Andrew Beeston and Christina Trevanion was a rare B12 registration plate from a Jaguar car, which was valued at up to £30,000.
Other interesting items included a portrait miniature by Guglielmo Faija dating to 1832 valued at up to £3,000.
Acorns Hospice's three counties fund-raising manager Fran Winterbourn said: "The day was a tremendous success. I didn't expect to see so many people and I would like to thank them for supporting Acorns."
Mr Lamond said the firm was delighted to support such a good cause and joined Mrs Winterbourn in thanking the people of Hereford and surrounding area for turning out in such numbers.
