OhioJim, Welcome to the board. I can't give you a value but was able to find some info on your champagne. I think the holidays beckon you to open and celebrate.

Henriot: YEAR(S): 1971 Reserve Baron Philippe de Rothschild

A very rare vintage Reserve Champagne from Henriot. A special Cuvee made to honour Pilippe Rothschild on occasion of his visit to the Henriot vineyards. According to rumours, old man Rothschild remarked that 1971 Henriot was the best Champagne he ever tasted. In response, Henriot asked his permission to call the wine Reserve Baron Philippe de Rothschild. The wine was tasted in the summer of 1993. Deep golden color, almost Blanc de Noirs. Incredible, superpowerful nose with prodigious yeast, exotic nuts such as (macademia, hazelnut), very fine mousse combine with noble age and superb breeding to create an unimaginably rare Champagne experience. 95 Points. (LRR).
