We have one with no name or markings. We bought it at The Chiseler Sale at the University of Tampa many years ago. I'm curious about the value
Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

Hi Eve,

The focus of a museum is on the artistic and cultural value of collection pieces. There are also a lot of variables when estimating the value of an artwork. For example, the condition or its acknowledged authenticity. My advice would be to contact an auction house or appraiser.
