Item 33 of the British Museum's 100 objects is the Rosetta Stone. First time I've seen it.

I showed that to a visiting American recently.

The best thing about having a better-than-passing level of knowledge about ancient history is that when showing people around the BM, you can start off demonstrating that knowledge until trust has been established, then slip in all sorts of lies and misdirections.
