GUEST: It's been in my husband's family for about three generations. It is supposedly made in Germany around the year 1860. Supposedly this is silver, enameled. Beyond that, we don't know much about it.
APPRAISER: It's not actually German. The piece was actually made in Austria, in Vienna, and there's a mark that tells us that. There's a tiny little "A" mark here on the mount, and the mounts are silver, so it's silver, it's oxidized, it's discolored with age. And this type of drinking horn would have been made in Austria in the 1880s.
GUEST: So it's a drinking horn.
APPRAISER: A drinking horn, yeah.
GUEST: Holds a lot.
APPRAISER: (laughing) It does. I think more for show. Viennese enamels, they were produced in some quantities. It's not-- they're not rare. It's the size that is significant. So for today's market, for auction, I would estimate it between $8,000 and $12,000.
GUEST: Wow. Had no idea it was worth that much. Very cool.
