Ok. To get an answer one must first ask a question. Do you have a
question about them?

My question is, what might be the value of each of the pieces?

It is difficult to say how much a copper relief by Arieh Merzer is
worth because apparently all his works are not accounted for and
frankly they appear to be relatively rare on the open market. So
desirable are these pieces it seems that Golden Peacock Ltd., the
publishing company for Livnat Brothers
(http://www.livnat-brothers.com/ariemerzer.htm) who has an apparent
interest in these types of Judaic art, is requesting that anyone who
has in their possession any copper works of Arieh Merzer to contact
them. In turn they may also ask you if you would like to have
photographs of your works published in an upcoming publication
featuring some of Merzer's work.

While I cannot be certain, I presume that the rarity of such works (or
the limited availability of them perhaps) may make them quite valuable
and as such this source may be able to tell you what they are worth
(or may even be interested in acquiring them). Clearly if these works
were plentiful and therefore not very valuable, Golden Peacock Ltd.
would not be pleading with the public to help locate examples of them.
This in itself supports the logic that the peices may have some
signficant collector, historical or even monetary value.

I recommend that you email Golden Peacock Ltd. and let them know that
you are in possession of some Merzer art and pose your question
directly to them. My guess is that they can give you some educated
estimate of the value of your peices:

Short of a definitive answer please let me know if this suffices.
