World's Most Expensive Musical Instrument

Violin Vieuxtemps Guarneri
Vieuxtemps Guarneri was created by Guarneri in 1741. It is famous under the nickname of Mona Lisa of all violins. The violin is named as Vieuxtemps Guarneri after it was purchased by Henri Vieuxtemps in 1800s. The value of this most expensive violin is $18,000,000. In this present day this violin belongs to the Chicago’s Bein & Fushi. Probably some collectors really want to have it as their latest collection. It seems that this most expensive violin is not a commercial thing to own.
In the world of the concert, the title of Giuseppe Guarneri is yet revered and respected. The master craftsman of the 18th century is yet identified for his creations, including some of the greatest violins always made. So, those who boast of possessing an instrument Guarnieri novel might be deemed not merely blessed but also very wealthy, given its lofty inherent worth of his creations. It is not the case. From nowadays, the list of blessed owners Guarnieri, can stretch, given that one of the most prominent of his violins, one known Vieuxtemps Guarnieri, in homage to the great Belgian violinist and composer Henri Vieuxtemps, who had owned, go to auction for a record $ 18 million well! The prior record belonged to some other Guarnieri, sold “only” 10 million.
Built in 1741, three years before the demise of Ceremonies creator, this infrequent and novel instrument, is one of the most exceptional creations Guarnieri, who built the largest average of the other violins.
And this is possibly the most significant feature that makes it so precious and dissimilar from everybody else. In special for the higher power of sound, not just in terms of volume but also attribute, as evidenced by Peter Quint, a soloist with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, this was among the auspicious to have the privilege to have played.
But these outstanding qualities should not be shocking, recall that the prominent “gun” Paganini was a Guarnieri. At this level we can merely wait to see who, among numerous collectors from around the world who already have stepped forward, capable to bring domestic the big violin.

Most Expensive Robbery in the World

Central Bank of Iraq (March 18, 2003 - Baghdad, Iraq 1 billion dollars !)
Most Expensive Robbery till now: Central Bank of Iraq(Over $1 Billion)
Most Expensive Robbery till now: Central Bank of Iraq(Over $1 Billion)
Over one billion dollars was stolen from the Central Bank of Iraq on March 18th, 2003. Was this robbery a result of careful planning? Or was it a result of brute force? Saddam Hussein treated Iraq as his own personal kingdom, so it’s no surprise that he would feel that the Central Bank of Iraq was his personal bank account.It was actually quite simple: Saddam Hussein sent his son named Qusay to make a withdrawal from the bank on behalf of a handwritten note before coalition forces began bombing Iraq. His son sat there as boxes filled with one hundred dollar bills were given to him. The entire operation took about five-hours. However, it didn't get him very far as he was later killed by US troops. Approximately $650 million was later found by US troops hidden in the walls of one of his palace’s, though the remaining $350 million has never been recovered and is considered lost.
