Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Did some research and this is what I found out!. If your violin is a commercial copy, i!.e!. not an original Stainer, depending on when it was actually made and its condition, it could be worth anywhere from $200 to over $1000!. One individual said some commercial copies have brought as much as $2000 in very rare instances!. If your violin is an original Stainer it could be worth in excess of $2400!. The best thing to do would be to take your violin to an expert to find out exactly what you have!. He or she could probably give you a more accurate estimate of the value of your violin!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Some museum experts are willing to estimate values-at a cost!.You could google!. Most music stores are willing to guess-usually low!. Especially if they are willing to take it off your hands!. I wouldn't go there!.If it is insured your insurance company might have an appraiser available!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
