Well, what about it? I can tell you that unless it says Antonius Stadovarius replica, that it is probably worth a lot of money. Maybe even up to $10,000 if it is in good condition.

If it says on the label "Made in Czechoslovakia", then it is most definitely a fake. I'm actually inclined to believe that most if not all of these Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 17xx violins are fakes.

Most Stradivari labeled instruments are fake and a large percentage don't say copy of or replica. There are only about 500 of his instruments still in existence, so if yours is real it's probably stolen.

What is a Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 1734 made in japan really worth?

A real one is worth in the millions. However, the chance of finding a previously unknown Strad is astronomical whereas coming across a modern copy, worth less than $2000, is extremely common, just check out Ebay. Except for a few stolen Strads only 500 or so originals remain and their locations are known.

How can one tell if a violin is a true Stradivarius and not a copy?

AnswerIf you find a Stradivarius You can be assured that it will most likely be a copy. Most of them are in bank vaults or in the care of the world's top violinists. The chances that an owner of a real Stradivarius will allow you to touch his/her instrument is more or less zero, even if you are a professional violinist yourself and even then it would be considered a rude request should you ask to do so. Also, during the early part of the 20th Century thousands of fairly crude "Stradivarius" violins were churned out in the first mass production factories in some European countries. These were true Stradivarius models since Stradivarius basically standardized the modern shape of the violin with his longer sloped neck. Invariably they were terrible instruments and are virtually worthless today. Modern factory-made violins are much better and some are even quite excellent. But your chance of actually running into a real Stradivarius? Very low, the only way you could find one is if it was stolen or a Strad. that had been lost for a long time. Even so, if you think it might be one, you should take it to an experience violin maker to be sure you aren't sitting on an attic treasure! It's not impossible to come across one but very rare: what makes it possible World War II the spoils of war if prominent wealthy holders were jewish then that would be key. You would find the makers markers label most removed to smuggle and second pray it was maintained over the years (it must be played to maintain it's sound and kept in ideal conditions) commonly loss of label for smuggling and poor maintenance it most likly loose any potential as a $3 million dollar instrument most are really fakes selling the notion as surviving the holocust and Hitler's regime. If it was well there is a registry of jewish stolen properties so good luck!
