They are fairly rare. I believe they made less than 1000 of them . Value is subjective but I feel they are worth more than Beanos

I have one that is missing the ring and pin and was offered $1,500 and passed because I’m not sure when I will ever find another one.

 

Not sure how many are still out there but I haven’t seen 1/2 dozen of them in 10 years of looking.

 

The one posted looks like a very nice example. If it was offered up for sale I would get in line.

The one sold on this forum recently was offered for $1450 I believe, with an OBO. I offered him $950 but he had already sold it for $800.
