I have this chicken cup and am looking for experts who may be able to tell me if this would be worth anything.

The Mark is a Chenghua mark, during the Great Ming dynasty, but it is an auspicious mark, the decoration looks more recent in my opinion.

The question should be if this is authentic or not. If not, it is an ordinary fake. If yes, it is a case for auction houses like Sothebys, etc., and it would be in the millions.
This forum is not the place to estimate authenticity of such items... this requires a different type of expertise that you can only acquire by working for an auction house or museum.

Thank you. And I will rephrase. I was trying to get an idea of whether this is an antique or a replica.
I was not trying to get an estimate or value although the question I posted may have been misleading.
