I'm not sure that it's a prototype, but if it had a plaque indicating that it was a prototype from, say 1775, then it's possible that it was also used to help shoe Paul Revere's horse which pretty much made it possible for America to be made great again (or not, haha) and so the value could be astronomical.
But that of course would TO SOME EXTENT involve a small, barely discernible, teeny tiny little leap of faith.
