I have a large brass Winchester balance beam scale used for weighing grain. Where can I find more info on it and an estimate of it's value? Pictures are available but I can't find how to include them in this post.

  Does it look like either of these?

  Hello. Thanks for your efforts. IT is identical to the first one however it does not have the stand or bucket. Pretty shocking asking price.

  I wouldn't pay any attention to fleabays, pie in the sky asking prices. Specially if your scale isn't complete, with all accessories. Even the actual selling price, would tend to be deceptive because of this.
