Which, in my opinion, means that while it may have very little monetary value as a collectors item it still has tremendous value as a family heirloom. I am incredibly fortunate to have my great grandfathers deer rifle and I cherish and it will be passed down when I check out (and likely sooner). So the moral of the story is, please please encourage the widow to find a family member who might appreciate it and gift it to him or her.
