Now, players could be hesitating to purchase this famous piece of art from Redd, considering the character is notorious for selling fake pieces of art. Players purchasing this renowned piece of art from Redd in Animal Crossing: New Horizons should be wary. There is a phony version of the ancient statue in the title, so players will need to be on the lookout for the part of the fake version that will give away that it is the fake. This feature is that the forgery has antennas on top of its head when the real version does not have any antennas. 

There is no doubt that the ancient statue is one of the rarest and most interesting pieces of art in the game. Those looking for an excellent addition to their museum would be unwise to pass by the opportunity to acquire this famous piece of art and have it shown off in their museum for visitors to view.
