I found an old candle base (I think) that was ceramic with red brass legs, a yellow brass cup and a lead plate on the bottom. It probably made me $7 and I almost passed it thinking the whole thing was ceramic.
Similar story, At 2 different yard sales I spent about 50 cents each on what I thought was a dirty candle extinguisher and an other brass vase. Both turned out to be silver. Yey me:)
