Est Value: I see many of these ducks by Mr Harris going from $150 - $300+ US on ebay. In my experience decoy ducks are highly collectable and currently get the bucks : ) I would insure it under your house contents insurance for $400 - $500 US,
Thanks for sharing your wonderful piece. I would appreciate your feedback on my evaluation in a reply and up vote if you learned anything.
Peace Always
