You may want to check the area you live in to see if there is a casting foundry that will make a sand mold(sand just for molding) and see what it would cost to have a brass casting done from the mold, looking at the size I am thinking mold and casting 300.00 bucks another 100.00 to polish it. I did it for the retired navy guys when I was in CA. If it is as rare as you think it may make you enough for that new MTH Hudson Hiawatha I bought. That would depend how much you would charge for the castings.
The Maritime museum got request from time to time to have duplicates of the ships plaques if they had the original, They really were small about 12"x 6" and they charged a 100.00 donation to the museum. Now keep in mind that was 15 years ago when I was a volunteer there who got the work done for them, I am sure it is a little more expensive today.I am told they do not do that since I left. Just a thought.
I got one of them,love it!
