Did you happen to get a number put on this? I own the exact same piece!

Just bought the same one at a sale. What's it worth
Re: antique rocking chair
These are reproductions, most of them made on the run up to the bicentennial year 1976. They are copies of windsor style chairs made during the late 18th to early 19th century, we'd retail one for about $150.00 if in very good condition.
