I have an OME Columbine --maple--with an engraved tail piece,flange, arm rest and tension hoop. It's in show room condition except for some frost-wear on the head . It's serial number 2690 (the first Columbine OME ever made) and was made in 1982. I can't find a suggested value on it anywhere, (for insurance purposes) so I'm assuming it's " guard it with your life" . It sure has been good to me. BTW-- I called OME. Looks like I would have to make a trip to Denver to a music store to get an idea what it's worth.

Try Geoff Hohwald at Banjo Warehouse. He might be able to help you.
I assume it’s a resonator model because you posted in bluegrass playing advice. What tone ring does it have? That affects value.
