    All I know about this is it's a Girmscheid stein #157. The marking says it was made in the 1880's and signed by GK which is known to be anonymous. Does anyone know how much this is worth? It's in excellent condition!!

      This is a 1,5 L pottery stein by Mathias Girmscheid depicting early Germans. The text is: “Hoch deutsches Lied, hoch deutscher Trank.” (Long live German song, long live German drink.) In mint condition the price range is $75 to $100 in a stein auction catalog, but that includes about a 30% commission.
