Antique Violin Appraisal

How do you start process to sell an antique?
I have a violin made in 1734. I am pretty sure it is an original and not a replica. It is in good condition but needs to be restrung. How do you go about getting an appraisal and be able to sell it for the highest price available, like you hear about people all the time finding old antiques and sellig them for millions?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
I seriously doubt the authenticity of your violin ( there are so many fakes like that, however you should take the instrument to a reputable luthier and have it appraised.
