Please clarify, an artifact from the Titanic itself or a survior? Those are two different things.
Sounds like a family heirloom that should be kept in the family, not trashed or sold. I would suggest to put it a safety deposit box for safekeeping, but get it appraised first for value and insurance purposes.

Any type of historical object is a wonderful treasure! You should cherish it and teach your child about it's history so she will grow to cherish and treasure it as well.
On the other hand, you can wait until Antiques Roadshow comes near you, get it appraised, then sell it for huge bucks -- LOL -- okay, not really, but I LOVE that show!
