Welcome to the DIS. I do not know the answer but you can check to see if EBAY has had one sell or has one for sale... Good luck in your search.

Thank you, I appreciate any and all help. I tried e-bay, bit there was no data of any kind in regards to my search.

I purchased them from a Disney store in 1995-1996-1997 roughly and were approx. $100 each + tax. I have no idea how to determine value. A friend of mine suggested this site.

Unfortunately determination of value is a relative, not an absolute. The definition of Fair Market Value is "the amount that a person, under no compunction to sell, is willing to sell a specific item for and that a person, under no compunction to buy, is willing to spend to purchase the item".

There is an absolute portion, which is the value of the pass to enter DL. However, when it was sold at a price above the admission part of the initial selling price was an estimate of what a person would be willing to pay for a rarity, as well as any other items which came along with the admission ticket.

The only way to determine the FMV would be to put it up for auction, possibly with a reserve set at what you think the value should be or at least so you don't have a loss on the sale.

Hi,
Thank you very much for the idea to list on auction w/reserve. I don't know why I didn't think of that! Duh on me!

Anyway, thanks again and happy new year to you....
