From The Cove in Tiburon- Raleigh Mountain Tour 520
Hello I live in Marin and I got this at a garage sale in the 1980s.... someone told me it might be worth something. Does anyone know what this Raleigh bike might be worth? It’s dusty and possibly a little rusty but looks like it’s in good condition and has original sticker from The Cove bike shop, which must be a big deal because I live near a mountain bike museum and they mentioned The Cove on their website. I can’t post any photos because I am new to this forum.
Original mountain bike
Says The Cove bike shop and no area code, so you know it’s old.

...Raleigh made a number of "Mountain Tour" bikes over the years. AFAIK none of them have any special value, other than as bicycles. Here's one currently on CL for $100. The place that sold it does not add to the value.

Welcome! If yours is one of the models built with 650b size tires it will have modest value. If they are 26" (appears to be) the bike will have less value.
