Reel... what's it worth?

I was sent here from another forum and was told you might be able to help me.

I have a fly reel that has never been used and I was wondering what it is worth? It is a JW Young & Sons Ltd. Model 1530.
Thanks a lot.

Just an approximate would be nice, ($40? $60? $100?) I am donating it to charity and would like to tell them what to start the auction off at. Thanks.

Kevin, Lawson's Guide to Old Fishing Reels, 3rd ed. lists one 1530 in Ex. condition at $95.
