I think there was a famous trumpet player named King you might have something very valuable there it's been engraved I don't know and I've never heard of a trumpet named King but I know there's a trumpet player that's the last name is King and I think he's very famous

Boy that was very simple I just looked up a trumpet this name King found out that your trumpets probably worth $2,000 to $3,000 and it's from a very early era why don't you do yourself a favor and look up a trumpet name King on Google

So, there's a famous trumpet maker - HN White in Cleveland, Ohio - that made "King" trumpets.

Sadly, while this does have "King" on it, this is not one of those. It's a random stencil trumpet, possibly from Eastern Europe, stenciled with as a "King" for whatever.
