Sounds like an interesting peice.
Any pics available?
I say your best bet would to go to a local gun store or gunsmith and have it overlooked and possiably apraised if it is a real rare peice.

Not sure exactly but your piece looks to be in good condition and you have original paperwork (i see).

I would guess somewhere easily north of $300 because it is an “American” Derringer.
