Hello. My neighbor wants to buy my old stein but says it isn't worth much. I don't know if he's right or wrong. It's marked RM and F.Zinn on the pewter lid. It's decorated with transfer art (?) of the city of Laufen. The top of the lid is darker than its shinier inside and is inscribed Andenken 19 Juli 1896. The finial is a weird face like a Viking or the Green Man. It says 50 on the bottom with 2 other hard to see marks. Any help with ID and possible value would be great. Thank you much for your smarts, Jane
