I have a chunk of the Berlin Wall with a cert of authenticity. It has
a little of the graffiti still on it.

Whaddya think the kids might be able to sell that for when I am gone?

Well, from what I understand there are enough certified chunks of the
Berlin Wall to build the Great Wall of China, so I would guess it will
fetch less than $105K.

My chunk was actually presented to me in Dayton OH by some Berliners
who were there for a meeting I chaired. Does it reduce the value if
people know?

The value really means very little to me because, once things like
that get in my hands, they never leave.
