Paragraph 1
Is it
to spend over $2 million on a hat? The answer is "yes" if the hat
belonged to the French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. An
hat that Napoleon is most famous for was sold at an auction this
for $2.1 million. This is a record for a hat, so it is the most
piece of
ever sold. The auction sale broke the previous record for a hat, which was $2 million. That hat also once belonged to Napoleon. A historian said Napoleon liked hats and owned around 120 of
. This week's record-breaking hat is made of felt and has the red, white and blue colours of the French
on it. Experts say it dates back to the
1800s. Thousands of artists have created
of Napoleon wearing it.
