Hello,
This figurine was giving to our church as part of a fundraiser. Could you please tell me what it is worth, and if anyone is interested in buying it. The Figurine has an n mark with a 5 pointed crown on the bottom.
Thank you.

Well.. I see you made it here !! Thats wht I thought it was but needed to see it to make sure !! Capodimonte is not a brand name but is a region in Italy !! The mark certifies that it was made by one of the factories/studios there !! You used to be able to tell capodimonte by the style but this piece is 20th century and has a more modern look and few of the applied pieces that the older capo did !! This one was probably made mid 20th century !!

Thank you. It took someone with a lot more technological expertise than I am to post on both sites you recommended! Could you tell me the value or what I could expect to get for it?

Here is the listing for those that have sold recently !! Those by a known artist and a few of the more original ones sell well !! But the unsigned and later ones have been running $30. or less !! I think yours would bring somewhere in the $30. range give or take a few dollars !! I would list it at $49.99 OBO and see where it goes !!
