Nuydea Dutch Oven?
« on: January 10, 2014, 11:07:24 PM »
Is Nuydea cast iron collectable/valuable?  I haven't heard much/read much in terms of the cookware they produced.  I picked up a Dutch Oven with what I call spider web lid.  See below link.  I have the same lid except mine is the dutch oven version.

Not too many pieces out there Derek so its not a very fluid market for establishing value.  Mostly identified with that lid style for a round roaster/dutch oven.

You can check completed listings on ebay but don't count anything by the seller you linked above.  Notorious for pricing as if all their pieces were gold plated.

That seller only wishes on his prices.  Your dutch oven is probably worth about $25-50.  Same for the skillet in your ebay link.  Nice iron and older...but not that collected.

Not that big of deal.  Mainly just curious is all because I never heard or read much about them.  I only paid $5 for it anyways.

Great buy!!  Maybe the aforementioned seller will give you half what he's asking for his :)
