Lens of Valuation (Magic Lens)

This highly prized item consists of a lens some 3 inches in diameter with a handle some 6 inches long. The lens allows the viewer to estimate the true worth of any nonmagical object to within a tolerance of 5%, if studied for at least five rounds. Of course, this is an average price, and special conditions of supply or demand may make such a valuation wildly inaccurate. Merchants usually go to considerable lengths to prevent any lens of valuation from being used on their goods! In the thieving community, this item is most sought after by fences, who can widen their operations by leaps if they possess this item.
