Each range is for a generic cask: a full 250-litre hogshead filled at 63.5%, in good condition, with the usual losses for its age. The low end is what to look to pay, the middle a fair estimate, and the high end expensive for a typical cask. Your cask's condition, paperwork, history and how full it is all change what it's worth.
