Recently my wife and I purchased a Hummel at a benefit auction.  It is the “Meditation” version with this mark 13/2/0 on the bottom of the base, top.  I will try to attach a picture of the bottom to show what I am speaking of.  I looked on Hummel's website and I can't tell what version of mark it has at the lower right corner but there is a letter V with a very small bee and this is above the word Goebel above the 2nd “E” and a tiny signature.  This item is only 4-1/2 inches tall so I don't know if it's a “downsized” version.  It appears to be in perfect shap.  I cannot see any cracks, chips or imperfections.  We bought it at the auction for only $15.  I thought it was a STEAL.  I'd like to sell it on Ebay, but I do not knowwhat price to put on it.  I guess I could list it for what I paid for it - plus shipping of course.  It does not have a box or tent card like my wife's Precious Moments do. Any help or appraisals would be appreciated.

I believe the one you have is TMK5 which is around 1972-1979.  You get can an idea how much it can sell for on ebay, just do a search on “hummel Meditation”.  Right now, it has about 27 same items for bid on ebay, so with a starting price of $14.99 will get it started. Good luck!

Here are a few bits of info to help you appreciate your figurine: “Meditation 13 2/0″ was first produced with a TMK2 mark (ca. 1950), in the listed size of 4.25″, and stayed in production until it was temporarily withdrawn in January 1999, TMK7. The 13 2/0 version has been produced only in the 4.25″ size. Other sizes will have other version numbers.
