    This is an early horn prior to when Conn started using rolled tone holes. It also would have originally been silver plated based on the engravingg.

     

    So it has been stripped of its silver, then buffed out, then lacquered.

    So very far from being any kind of original condition collectors value horn.

    I would hope to get in the 750 range if I was selling it. It may go for more to

    the uneducated purchaser. They ae very cute horns, so enjoy it.
