– ask information about its value
SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Sir,
I recently found an interesting object while I was walking in the area near the famous historical Sukhchain Gurdwara. It appears to be some kind of utensil or maybe a tool, but it looks very old. We are all well aware of the historical significance of that particular area and was wondering if you, or someone else at the museum might be able to help me in discovering if the object is indeed from the ancient ruins of the village which founded the area many years ago.
The object is about 40cm in length, narrow, but with one end bigger than the other, it looks like it might have been some kind of spoon or tool for mixing, maybe. Oh, and it appears to be made of some hard kind of material, it isn’t wood or metal.
Would it be possible for me to bring the object to the museum and let you examine it in further detail?
Thank you for your time, I look forward to your reply.
Yours faithfully,
Somnath
