   Hi
   I am thinking about picking up an estate Peter Hedegaard. It's a smooth tulip, FP grade. Anyone knows how much are they worth?

   Without seeing it, I'd say several hundred dollars. Some of his pipes fetch double or triple that. He's been dead a while now (5 or 6 years I think), there ain't no more.

   It's a smallish pipe, I don't have the exact dimensions.

   Nice looking pipe. Assuming still good internally, it should be worth at least a couple c-notes.

   It's possibly walnut or rosewood as the grain doesn't read as briar to me; of course, I could be wrong.

   In any case, if it is in very good condition and just needs cleaning up, I'd say it's a steal for under $200.

   It sure looks like briar to me. Especially this one http://image5.sahibinden.com/photos/10/47/09/113104709b79.jpg

   It has also has his grading stamping.

   Here are some completed Ebay listings, they range form $166 to just under $300.
   I'm not familiar with his grading, Pipepedia may help there. That one looks stamped FF but I don't know what that means.

   Good Day All

   Peter only workd in briar wood. The FP ( no number ) was Peter's lowest smooth graded pipe line. One step above a sand blast.

   I have sold a similar pipe is far better condition ( from what I can tell of the pictures ) for $225.00. That being said, size does matter. If this pipe is a group 5 or larger then the price should rise accordingly.

   The grades were as follows; sand blast ( no grade ) FP, FP1, FP2, FP3, OP1, OP2, OP3, A and AA.

   Regards
   BB
