Does anyone know how much an Uncle Sam Fox Decanter is Worth?

I have a Regal China Jim Beam Trophy Decanter, it's an uncle sam Fox and I am trying to find out any info it I can. I also have a 1976 General Thomas Jonathan Stonewall Jackson on Horseback decanter. The Stonewall Jackson one does not look like the 1978 decanter. The cork is the Hat.

If I want a general idea of what something is worth, the I look on Ebay, or just try googling what it is, and you may find an auction house or something where they;ve sold one in the past (most auction houses put their auction results on their websites)
