What will it be worth today if they were to find the copy of the Rubaiyat?

Ruba'iyat of Omar Khayyam
Omar Khayyam (1048 - 1122) was a Persian mathematician, astronomer and philosopher, and a copy of his work, ‘The Rubaiyet’, was present aboard Titanic. This was no ordinary copy though; the cover was a peacock design made from gold and studded with over 1000 rubies and emeralds. It had just been purchased at auction for £405 and was being taken to its new home in New York. The Rubaiyet is often mentioned when talk of salvage arises, but it is hardly a priceless treasure. It certainly wouldn’t pay for the costly salvage expedition required to find it, which could cost millions of dollars to undertake, without any guarantee of success. hope this is any help to you guys |

Was the Rubaiyat really onboard Titanic or is it a myth?
