Connor it really depends on timing, market demand etc. for me no Brown Old Mill should trade below say 8-10k depending on quality etc.
Even when backs were not on fire and folks were on the fence about color variants like brown Lenox and brown Old Mill. The Brown Old Mill was on most everyone's want list and traded in the 3-8k range this was many years ago. Now with more folks in the pool and more folks accepting the Brown Lenox and Old Mill as a legitimate backs I think the prices would be much higher.
For me this is a very nice example one of only two known Sid Smiths and the better of the two. I think this card could easily fetch 10k+ perhaps more with the right players in play at auction.
However in the end they are only worth what someone is willing to pay as is the case with most collectibles.
Hope this helps, I own a nice example and offer of 10k wouldn't peak my interest FWIW.
Cheers,
John
