Found this at an estate sale

Does anyone have any clue what it might be worth? I believe it's from the early 1600 and is Danish.

Don't know if either of these are actually as old as the dates on them but here is another similar to yours with a very similar coat of arms-

Personally, I would expect the casting to be better detailed.

I am probably wrong, but this looks to my totally untrained eye like something that would be found at a Pier 1. I hope I am wrong.

Then it sounds like you have the real thing. I am glad I am wrong, just saying how it looked to my eye. Congratulations.
