Hi everyone,

I had the ability to purchase a coronet today at an antique show. It had two different leadpipes and it came with a mouthpiece. The bell said:

Received Diploma and Medal
Philadelphia, PA 1876
Geo. McFadden Maker
71+73 Clinton St. Syracuse, NY

The Serial Number on it was 2510. Can anyone tell me about its value and the maker? Thanks in advance,
