    Discovered some old photos in an attic, just wanting to get some help identifying them and if they are possibly worth anything?

      Cool piece, looks in great shape. Certainly worth something but no clue how much.

      Looks to be a Civil War era soldier holding a sword.

      The hat is unusual-- some additional facts may be determined with a closer inspection.

      The photograph is either a tintype or an ambrotype.

      I collect and deal in antique photographs and they have a very good value.

      Size and other factors set the value. Your particular image is in the hundreds. I'd have to see more pictures to make a better determination.

      GREAT image and thanks for sharing.
