Question
Hi good day to you,
                  I have a silver queen victoria and king Albert silver thimble and i was wondering what it might be worth and where best to sell it. I can attach a image if it will help.

Kindest regards Doreen

Answer
Hello Doreen.  Please send digital pictures of your thimble, showing views of the pattern on the band, any maker's marks and a view of where you insert your finger.  I'll do my best to answer your questions, once I see the pictures.  You can send to me at bacchino@twcny.rr.com or use this form.  I look forward to hearing from you.  Barbara
