What would you say is the most valuable man-made non-replaceable object in the world?
What would you say is the most valuable single man-made non-replaceable object in the world?
This is my guess.
My opinion is based on the facts that it cannot possibly be replaced, and one would probably have to buy the whole Louvre and its contents in order to acquire it, and does anyone have that much money?
Does anyone have any other ideas? Remember, only a single man-made object.

Has anyone got any good ideas about this?
Do I need to say it - politics and religion are OFF TOPIC
Why Is The Mona Lisa So Famous? How Much Is It Worth in 2020?
The Dallas Cowboys football team is worth more than that, and thats not even counting their stadium which cost 1.2 billion to construct.
Dallas Cowboys worth $4.8 billion, almost twice as much as average
I was thinking on the same lines but I realized that while buildings were valuable there is also land that is man made that's worth more. Parts of Manhattan, Boston, and many other very expensive Cities were created with landfill and are some of the most valuable real estate in the world. Just in Lower Manhattan there are 75 blocks that they created. How many billions is that worth?
Also I don't think the Manhattan land is replaceable since environmental laws would prevent them from filling wetlands, estuaries, and tidal marshes.
If you want to say a football team and its stadium are not objects, then we can go to the real answer.
The International Space Station is the most valuable man made object in the world, as it cost over 100 billion dollars to design and construct.
A football team is not an "object" although the stadium can be considered one. I agree that the value of the ISS is probably beyond most if not all man-made objects, but I chose the Mona Lisa because it cannot be replaced, whereas your suggestions can be. But now, seeing that there are probably many replaceable man-made objects that may be worth far more than the Mona Lisa, I have changed the question - the object must be NON-REPLACEABLE.
Anoon buzz...it is sitting in your own backyard...the great Wall of China...😀😀
Hi Shona1,
Granted that it would take years, costs lives and fortunes beyond belief, but it COULD be replaced.
Anything except for a totally ruined environment can be replaced. That is man-made.
The ISS is what first came to mind so I looked it up. Space travel is expensive!
My title question was originally misleading, and I since changed it to mean objects that cannot be replaced. The ISS can be replaced. The Mona Lisa cannot.
I think I made a mistake by posting this - I did it wrong to start with and I don't think I'll continue with it. So I'm locking it and I'm going to post another article about cars/trucks that I think will work better.
