Hi ,
On the lower back side of the sax , before the bell , there might be a model Number m ssuch as 10 -M, . If it is a little heavy , it might be a vintage Alto Sax . The instruments made by Conn in the 1930'2- early 1950's , can be worth a lot of money ,and people will pay top price for these instruments ........ Otherwise ,it could be a student horn made in Mexico or Asia , and not worth much .
If you can take a digital Photo and send it to be at my e-mail ( as an attachment ) to - gvt_mm@sbcglobal.net , I might be able to tell you ,if it is worth your time and money fixing it up for resale .tell me the serial # when you send the picture
Call me at 1-800 -236-4729 if you have orther questions . Thanks , Murray
