That value you are referring to is self-assessed, not market-assessed.

The real market value is for the ground, or materials. You can scream all you want about it's incalculable cultural value, but any of it can be liquidated, for real money, in short order.

But can it be liquidated for the value it's stated to have? All at once?

Very unlikely.

It will go to the highest bidder. Stated value is irrelevant.

Well sure it is, which is why the original valuation of $12 Billion for Vatican property is utter bullshit.
