A "certtified as genuine" 1719 Stradivari violin can (easily) be valued at more than one million dollars, depending on "condition" and the fame of the names in the so called chain of provenance.
Since Stradivarius was dead by then, probably not much
Considering that the real Stradivarius died in 1737, what you have is a replica. If it's in playable condition, it's worth maybe $200.
in the millions
.
It costs £5000- £10000+
I would imagine about £50 million but it could probably much much more
Without separating the steel from the aluminum, not much.
Ł600.000
About $500.00
A copy of a 1721 Stradivarius violin is actually not worth very much. On the retail market they can be found for about $175 to $400.
If authentic, it would sell in the millions of dollars. However, it is unlikely to be an authentic Stradivarius. The Stradivarius model has become the most standard violin model to copy, and many German factory makers of the late 19th to mid 20th century especially put the name Stradivarius with a year on their instruments. If it would be one of these instruments, it could still be worth between $1000 and $3000 dollars.

probably more than my house. O_O
I remember my first violin was a used one (though in good condition), and it came with all the necessities (such as a cleaner, and resin). It cost around $150. I'm sure you can get one for around $70 at the cheapest. But overall some violins can get pretty expensive as you require a better violin.
Antonio Stradivari made violins, violas, and cellos until his death in 1737. I myself have an authentic 1737 Stradivarius violin, though the ones made between 1666 and 1700 are priced much higher.
Due to the fact that Antonius Stradivarius was born in 1644, I don't think it would be worth much. :)
I'm not sure exactly how much but I know it can be up to about 5 million dollars.
AnswerIf you find a Stradivarius You can be assured that it will most likely be a copy. Most of them are in bank vaults or in the care of the world's top violinists. The chances that an owner of a real Stradivarius will allow you to touch his/her instrument is more or less zero, even if you are a professional violinist yourself and even then it would be considered a rude request should you ask to do so. Also, during the early part of the 20th Century thousands of fairly crude "Stradivarius" violins were churned out in the first mass production factories in some European countries. These were true Stradivarius models since Stradivarius basically standardized the modern shape of the violin with his longer sloped neck. Invariably they were terrible instruments and are virtually worthless today. Modern factory-made violins are much better and some are even quite excellent. But your chance of actually running into a real Stradivarius? Very low, the only way you could find one is if it was stolen or a Strad. that had been lost for a long time. Even so, if you think it might be one, you should take it to an experience violin maker to be sure you aren't sitting on an attic treasure! It's not impossible to come across one but very rare: what makes it possible World War II the spoils of war if prominent wealthy holders were jewish then that would be key. You would find the makers markers label most removed to smuggle and second pray it was maintained over the years (it must be played to maintain it's sound and kept in ideal conditions) commonly loss of label for smuggling and poor maintenance it most likly loose any potential as a $3 million dollar instrument most are really fakes selling the notion as surviving the holocust and Hitler's regime. If it was well there is a registry of jewish stolen properties so good luck!
If you find a violin with the label "Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis" don't get excited too quickly. It is nearly certain that it is not genuine. Sometimes violin makers who would put the names of other makers on their own violins to increase the price. Also restorers often use labels, sometimes genuine, but often forged, in instruments, and there is a big business in labels. Violin experts do not judge the value of a violin by its label. The label may even be missing from a genuine violin; it is almost certainly to be found on a forgery. A label might read: Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 17 The name Cremonensis will probably include the long s that looks rather like an f: Cremonenfis. This might be followed by circles with crosses, initials or other signs. These are made to be completed at the time the instrument is finished. The violin maker did not wish to have new labels printed each year, so the rest of the date is written by hand. A completed label should read "... Anno 1715" or "... Anno 1707", or at least an year of the 18th century. Some of these violins cannot be called fakes. For example a label like: Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis / Faciebat Anno 1721 / Made in BohemiaThis is more like a joke than a forgery, like finding a coin with the abbreviation B. C. stamped on it. Stradivarius never learnt English, and all his labels were printed in Latin.
In short, priceless. If this is a genuine Stradivari Violin, it will be worth well over $3,000,000 at auction, according to the research I've done due to having found one of these from my deceased grandparents, who themselves have had it in their family for over 160 years. The first thing you will need to do is to have it appraised and find out if it is indeed genuine. The problem is that almost all of the 600 or so instuments made by Antonio Stradivari are accounted for. That in combination with the fact that it is perfectly legal for any violinmaker to put a label like the one you mention inside his instruments ,as long as he doesn't try to sell the instrument as the genuine article,make it EXTREMELY unlikely that your violin is anything more than an instrument made "in the style of". That being said ,your viloin could still have substantial value.Many "copies" of Stradivari violins are themselves worth many thousands of dollars .The only way to tell for sure is to have a qualified luthier look at your instrument, again keeping in mind that the likelihood of it being a genuine Stradivari would something in the neighborhood of one in a Trillion.
First of all, I don't mean to be pessimistic, but the chances of you owning a Strad are slim to none. If you did own one, it would be worth millions of dollars, and the violin's tone (sound production) can tell you whether or not it could possibly be worth that much money. I you're still convinced that you do have a "real" Strad, I'm sorry to tell you that the label is incorrect if it says "Antonius Stradivarious Cremonenfis" because the correct name would actually be "Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis". In addition, if the label is not handwritten, then it is almost definitely a copy of a Strad because as I'm sure you know, Stradivarius did not have a computer (or any other machine of this sort) to print out little violin labels. Many modern luthiers make replicas of Stradivarius's work to try to match his instruments, but none have succeeded. Since your violin has been in your family for at least 100 years, the label was most likely made to trick violin collectors and buyers of that time into thinking that they were about to own a Strad, so that they would pay more money. Many other luthiers also made their own instruments and labeled them as Strads so that they would be bought. Right now, we have enough technology to tell if a Strad is authentic or not, so the old labels don't serve their intended purpose. It is also possible that this label could be from a completely different violin, and that the two labels were switched. Maybe the label from this violin got lost, so one a fake one was made to replace it. Believe me, everyone would love to have a Strad, but the only way to be completely sure is to get the violin authenticated.
