How Much is a Sword Worth?

IT DEPENDS... on the condition, rarity, materials, and labor involved in making it. Also supply and demand of course, back in history when swords had practical value in warfare and dueling. Let's take a look at the most expensive examples (like a Japanese Tachi worth supposedly 105 million dollars), some real-life market values in medieval England, and what causes price differences in modern reproductions. Being a collector is always a costly endeavor, but some of these are FAR beyond the reach of "mere mortals".
