The FLOAT 100
The hundred most significant objects in each of 11 categories, ranked. Every entry carries one reference price from a named public source, shown with its own kind: a realized sale, a market asking price or a guide value. They are not the same claim and are never presented as one. Each row below opens that category's full ranking; the figure beside it is the number-one entry's reference price, labeled the way its own page labels it.

How this is made
- The count
- The number beside each category is how many of its objects clear the publishing gate: a name, a year, an identifier, a rationale, a positive reference price with a citation, and a recognized price kind. A category with fewer than one hundred has entries that did not.
- The figure
- The number-one entry's reference price, copied from its own page. Nothing on this page is averaged, summed or ranked across categories.
