Default Value of old German Bible

1887.


1887 is not old, as Bibles go. If it were a 16th or 17th century Bible
it might have some value, but a 19th century Bible is unlikely to be of
much economic value. The Bible is the most published book ever, and
millions and millions of copies were published in the 19th century.

If it is nicely illustrated, beautifully bound, or stands out in some
other way, it may be of some value. Otherwise, perhaps $10-$20.
