    So, from $50 to $100 if in good condition and leather bound, just like any other edition, but check out the new price it might be less, now if you were to say 1685.

    I'm a little confused however by your description, the Psalms are usually included in the Old Testament and what do you mean by a revised New Testament?

    yes, a 1985 is just a old used bible. So the value will be only based on the publisher, the type of translation

    There was a "revised" version done in the last 70's to early 80's, it was not as popular as others. Since it has the
    Apocrypha I was thinking a Catholic version, but I don't believe they did a "revised" version.

    My 150 year old bible is only worth a few hundred dollars.

    Let me clarify my earlier comment there are versions which have the word revised in the title, Revised Standard Version comes to mind, but it means the entire Bible has been revised, that is, updated as to the english words used. Since there are many recent translations, to describle a Bible you use it's full title
