Old furniture, china, coins and estate jewelry ... some pieces are legitimate, valuable antiques while others are, well, just plain junk.
Learn to spot the difference at a four-session appraisal series on Thursdays at 6:30 p.m. through May 1, as the Ward Melville Heritage Organization brings antique dealers and experts to the Education and Cultural Center at Stony Brook Village Center on Main Street. Sessions cost $7 each ($25 for all four), which includes a free appraisal of one item per session. Call 631-689-5888 to register; visit wmho.org for the full schedule of topics and speakers.
