It is very unlikely that anyone here could give you a value on a custom knife without pictures, and some more information like age, sheath, etc. I think Ray Cook lived in GA. I believe he passed away(?). I have a knife he embellished for Houston Price. It is nice work.
You can also send quality pictures here....

and for a nominal fee, get a professional appraisal on a custom knife.

edited for clarity, more information....and because the poster did say mint.
Sorry.
