  If you bought it cause you liked it, it's a collectable.

  What you paid.
  
  If you bought it to sell at a profit, good luck.

  The most money I made are on coins I haven't sold.
  
  Got quoins?

  I don't even know what you paid and I can be pretty certain that it was too much. There is virtually no secondary market for this type of item.

  Yes it is, if you do a search on eBay for skylab there are a couple of similar ones for sale bid under $10.
  Might make good additions.
  
  Here is one.
  
  But yours is cooler because it was made from metal that was in space.
