I still choose the actual Holy Grail because it would literally be priceless.

But if people don't believe it's the real one, then I choose whichever is the most materially valuable. So probably the one with the most gold?

There's an easy way to test, but it can only be done once

Don't drink out of it.

Give it to your landlord as payment-in-kind for several months' worth of rent. Maybe your landlord will drink out of it.

Priceless doesn't do me much good when my rent is very much quantifiable.

If it doesn't have a price, I cannot extract its worth for the purposes of paying my rent. Unless you're implying I pay my rent with the grail itself, which I don't think is a good deal.

Drinking out of it grants eternal youth, you don't sell it, you sell access to it.

My dog in heaven, you could sell it for a priceless amount and then partition sections of the proceeds towards future rent.

My dawg, priceless is a figure of speech. It doesn't mean you literally can't apply a price to it. Sell it for whatever you want if it's the Holy Grail.

My dawg, I was just being pedantic for comedic effect. Didn't land. 🤷
