38-C-12A coronation model value?
#1

Hello all. I'm new to this forum and have a question about model 38-C-12A. This was manufactured in Canada to commemorate the coronation of King George VI and his wife Elizabeth. I believe it to be fairly rare and was hoping some knowledgeable Philco collector might be able to give me an idea of value. I'm starting to get rid of some of my collection so I can focus my collecting in one particular area (whatever they eventually may be). The cabinet has been stripped except for the small area around the emblem, but looks to be in decent shape. It has the right period grille cloth but I don't believe it is original. I also think there is something missing around the dial but don't know what that might be. I'd appreciate any help you could provide.
