In the '90's, nice examples hit the $1,000 mark. They then peaked at about $2,000 with at least one, I personally can recall, selling for $2,500! Then their value slid back in to the $500-$800 range. That was for very nice, complete examples. The one in question is pretty rough. You need a back, fabrication of the front clip brass insert, knob insert, a complete refinish/repair, and decals. In my opinion, in today's market, I'd say $450-$550 tops for it.
Now, if you REALLY want it, it's worth whatever you value it, and what you can acquire it for.
Good luck.
PS - As far as the recent $7,000 "sale", I would totally ignore it given the reputation of the seller.
