worth of drill

i was rummaging around in my tool chest and happened to come across an old
eggbeater style hand drill. original handle and works well. it is a millers
falls hand drill No. 104. no bits were included, but the mechanism is in
nearly pristine working condition.
i have looked on google and found the millers falls site, but have yet to find
any site giving out estimations of worth.
any suggestions?

thanx in advance......

Check on Ebay to see if anyone is selling similar tools, see what they sell
for.

Maybe $30. The eBay suggestion will give you a ballpark. But I'd keep
it! I have an old brace-and-bit that does not get used much, but I
can get a lot more control than the hand-held drill.

Don't remember the brand, but I keep a paint stirrer blade in mine so
I can stir stain without blowing it all over the shop using an
electric drill. Works great!
