Value on Family Heirloom

I completely understand the difficulty of a blind "appraisal."

The "oral history" that came with it is that it was liberated shortly after D-Day, so I guessed that German Dad gave it to his son, saying, "Here, take this. I carried it when I fought the Froggies," based on the date.
