Two things come to mind. As Gvel mentioned connect the ant to the grid cap of the 6A7. If the coil is open the set will play well with this set up.
2 Unplug the set and connect an ohm meter from the ant post to the chassis. If coil is good you will read a low resistance like 10 ohms. If it is like a 1000 ohms it's time to rewind.

Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
