Values for Presentation Cups
Values for Presentation Cups like this depend mainly on their metal content and history, the more historic the event the greater its value to a collector.
As this piece is for a unnamed dog show it provenance doesn't give it much value, if it is marked "Sterling", " 925" or has hall marks that indicate that it is indeed Sterling silver then its value could be in the $200.00 range.

Re: Silver Trophy Cup
Silver is currently going for $34-37 per oz on the stock market so it is at least worth its weight
