ummm what dose your horse need as far as a bit? i mean what dose he do? IDK how much i would pay for it... no more than $50

I think the mouthpiece looks a lot like a billy allen style mouthpiece.

The bit looks very well made and I would guess the price would reflect that. It's pretty and looks nicely balanced.

The length of the shanks suggests that it is for a finished horse, and the mouthpiece looks fairly soft and I like how the sides move independently of each other. The copper is nice too if your horse likes that.

I paid $22 for it.
