Anyone know how much a non-branded french stem from the early 80's is worth these days?

I cleaned and 'polished' the stem and tried to fit it to the new handlebar and discovered it has a 25.0 bar clamp. The quill is 22.2. 85mm extension, 140mm quill length with 50mm usable adjustment, -10 degree drop. It's a nice stem actually: lightweight, expander plug type, a stainless hbar clamp bolt with a knurled nut that digs into the other end.

If someone can find a $10.00 bill (plus shipping) in their pocket I wouldn't mind sending it to them. Or maybe a trade? I do need a 130bcd track crank with 165mm arms........
