Probably an ex-school horn. It's amazing how much disrespect some of these kids have for their instruments :evil: .

Some more examples- this seller has at least lowered his opening bids:

and at least they describe this one as "damaged":

Well they are getting closer in value. About $99 less and the marching lead pipes would be worth it if you needed them. :)
