Looks like a green dot (early 70's) Berlin Senior mirror - model 333. If you have the box and gasket, might be worth a little more. $300 or so is in the correct range. It it was pre-green dot, it would be $400 to $500.

This article on Talbots from a MB enthusiast magazine describes the mirror differences and history.

No, it's definitely a Talbot Model No. 300. It's a Junior if the mirror diameter is 3.5" If the diameter is 4", it's a Senior.

Gunther at Aardavark Intl bought the tooling and spares when Talbot went under. He still manufactures both mirrors and spare parts (gaskets, mirror glass, mounts, etc). He's very knowledgeable about the brand.

For reference this is Model 333 Note the different base:

I agree with Jonesy.

Jonesy, you know anything about Tudor mirrors? Made in the UK under license from Talbot.
