Any of the leading number plate retailers should be able to assist you.
However most of them will offer to market it for you for X.
Have a look for similar plates to yours for sale. That will give you a rough idea of prices asked.
As to actual worth, it’s worth what someone is prepared to pay for it

Can't help with your valuation request but I just last weekend purchased BIG 454 to go on my '66 coupe that now has a 454 transplant and I paid £1,200

Bastards won't let me assign it without getting a 'volunteer MOT' being 40 years or more of age then it has to be applied for by snail mail. Didn't used to be like thatAnd a 454ci motor IS big.
Edited because I'm thick and angry

They certainly make it hard for something that should be so easy.

Recently spotted outside the Brooklands Hotel and a rather unfortunate Trade Plate spotted by a Twitter friend......

Trade plate will take some working out to many people. I’ve seen the “real” one. It was on a 1963 bullit Bird sports roadster It was mid 60’s then and I didn’t know nothing about nothing then
. I believe it was one of Teddy Turners.
When I got to know teddy well in the late 70’s he no longer had it.
Most of his thunderbirds had CAT plates,
CAT 1 cost him £25. He had the finest collection of thunderbirds and Aston martins in the UK.
A REAL character

Remember the first time someone took me out in a 61-63 TBird rag top. This was late 60's - left a lifelong impression. Never actually managed to own one.......my son however has owned his '62 coupe for 15 years or more. Also has Edelbrock heads, headers, cam and genuine early 60's FoMoCo dual quad dual plane inlet with twin Holleys....

A chap down the road from us bought a 58 “square bird” from my dad in the early sixties, then got a 63 bullitt bird ( cigar shape) He didn’t progress to the “flair bird” shape of 64-66, but got a beautiful 69 in gold. Always put his plate on each one which was 2 CUT.
Last saw the 69 in the middle 90’s, still looked good and still had the plate on it.
