Wouldn't it be cool if they both followed me home? LOL!
In a perfect world, they would GIVE it to you!! If they come up with some bizarre amount that it's worth, we will all join in and let them know it isn't worth that much!!
I certainly hope it makes it's way to your house; no way should any family piece be sold if there's a way around it.
