Conn 24I 4-Valve Euphonium - Silver - Naked Lady Model

[BDeisinger]

There is a new posting of a Conn 24I on eBay which is shown as a rare naked lady model and is silver plated. Just wondering if this valid or not? The one photo of the inside of the bell appears to have brass showing which would indicate that the bell has been rolled out and the plating taken with it. It might be worth taking a look.

SOLD FOR $1,150

I'm not sure you are right about the brass showing through. Those gold/brown lines appear in several shots, and I THINK they are reflections from a cove molding or something in the room. It is a 4-valve model. Valves seem to be good. No case included. The starting bid is $1,000:

I agree with Dave, the 'brass' reflections are from the room the pix were taken in.

Nice old horn.

I agree Dave, on second look at the other photos it is from the moldings. I just wondering about the Naked Lady engraving and the silver plate.
