Hi Tracy,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This looks like bronze to me and should be fairly heavy; if it's light it is more likely brass and would have a slightly lower value. Let me know if I need to downgrade the value and change the description to brass.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
