      It ultimately would depend on the person buying (dont think it has a fixed market price 😛).
      .
      To the field of biology finding a perfectly preserved unknown organism would be invaluable for research and would be incredibly valueable for futhering our knowledge of genetic heritage!
      .
      To a museum or collector however it would depend on how popular the specimen is ☺
