Even 103 years after the sinking of the RMS Titanic, artifacts continue to surface from the depths. The latest find? A small biscuit made by 'Spillers and Bakers Pilot' is now up for sale on the American auction site 'Henry Aldridge & Son.' 

It seems this biscuit was part of the rations given to survivors evacuated to lifeboats the morning after the legendary ship sank. And how much is it going for? A price tag of $22,968 (!). So who would pay such a steep price for a biscuit? You might be surprised to hear that collectors still roam among us, willing to spend a fortune on rare items. 

Recently, a Greek collector, known as one of the most extravagant collectors globally, purchased this biscuit.
