Answer
If it was printed in 1809, I would say that it is worth something, although the condition and rarity of the book might also be a factor. I would not have a clue what cl means. I suggest going to this expert (http://www.allexperts.com/cl2/295/hobbies/Book-Collecting/) instead as he specialises in the field.
