Are there any markings on the outside/bottom?  When the bird pops out can you see any markings on the inside without opening it up?  Are you able to open it up (without damage) and see if there is any markings or information inside?

Syl, I recommend that you contact this site http://antiquemusicboxes.com/.  They will let you know if it is a Regina music box and approximate value according to the info on their site!  Hope it helps!
