Really depends on condition, but usually in and around 4 figures, can you post a picture?

Hi there the major difficulty you have is that the seal is gone, this means from a collectors point of view the value is greatly diminished as you cannot prove the contents are original. For example if you brought it to a specialist retailer they probably would not make you an offer. The value really is whatever you can get, it is only a guess but you could get as little as €50 or as much as €200 if someone wanted to take the risk that contents were original and unspoilt.

Just one view, other may agree or disagree.

Maybe a bar would buy it off you. They'd have to taste it to see if it's okay, of course.

Sounds like you might want to pour the remainder of the contents into a different bottle and just drink the rest of it yourself! :thumbsup:
