I have looked High and Low trying to find something in comparison to this with no luck.. The only similar pattern was pre Columbian.. It measures 59"X33" and is made of some sort of hair. Can anyone point me in the right direction

looks like an old Beshir made near the amu darya river. It looks older, maybe over 80 years old

Any idea on the value of a rug of this type?

You could look at replacing this piece with a budget of £200 - £350 in most good rug dealers
I used to sell these in the UK about 6 years ago, they have a soft handle, natural dyes, flat woven Kilim ends which are typical of the Baluch people but hard to define the clan itself from the image.
