  2. $25 to $150 more if its got a NICE set of horns.
     

  3. Very little. Not a quality skull to begin with , with bull horns screwed on a cow skull. $20 tops
     
  4. Hard to tell. Do you have a pic of the entire thing? Did you paint it? Or buy it?

    imo, that is a specialty craft/tourist type item, so whatever you can get. I`ve seen painted big rams skulls in airport gift shops for $500, but the same skulls have been there several years. cow skulls are common as can be, unpainted, for $5, so whatever you figure the painting is worth, plus $5. I suppose if I had it at flea market or pioneers day type event I`d put $100 on it and bargain down to $50, maybe less if I had been sitting on it a long time.
     
  7. Is that from El Paso, by any chance?

    They sell painted ones for around $50 on there.

    Really depends on the demand for it. you be the judge get all you can for it but probable not more than 35 to 40 dollars. it is a cow skull and not a bull.
     
  9. Looks like it might be bull horns on a cow skull. Photos of the horns would provide more info on value. The real value of it, to anyone on here would be the horns, and not really the painting. :)
     
  10. Its Steer Horns on a Polled Cow or Steer Skull. (remember Cows have horns too...)

    Typical for crafters. It always looks stupid... but people buy them on ebay all the time with a big old set of Longhorn horns on them.
     
  11. Sorry about that i knew this would happen i had to crop the picture so i could post it and it was to late for me to take another pic
     
  12. pic, I don't know where it is from.

  13. I'm putting it in the $20-$30 range. Maybe a little more if it's actually a bull skull.
     
  14. Looks very similar to these at El Paso. Retail $109.00

    Do a search for skulls.

    By the way, if you are a business, you can get their items at wholesale.

    Just what I was thinking. If it has real horns, then yeah it's a bit more. Not a LOT more, but a couple bucks.

    I have a guy who keeps bugging me about a painted cow skull he has. I've explained very patiently that it depends on the quality of the art and how big the horns are ;)
