Cheers

You do not have a Master Technika. Since WW II Linhof has made in 45 Technika cameras the following series:
III
IV
V
Master Technika (latest version is the Master Technika Classic
Master Technika 2000 which was replaced by the current Master Technika 3000
63886 is a Super Technika IV from about 1958. The Master Technika was introduced in 1972. I hope whoever sold you the camera did not tell you that you were buying a Master Technika instead of a Super Technika IV.
As for value you will have to check with dealers or online sales. Value will also depend on condition as well as model and age.
Re: Linhof Serial Numbers
I was wondering... Based on the assigned serial numbers, how many 4x5 Super Technikas V were manufactured? Is this information anywhere else hiding from me? Thanks in advance and happy 2012!

Pre-war 9x12/swing GG and single film holers - still in excellent working condition.

A swedish photo friend is selling his last camera - which was also his first! Lasted his lifetime without any difficulty!
Can a date be fixed to it?

5055 is a post war 1946/47 Technika III.
Re: Linhof Serial Numbers
And thanks, Bob! Linhof is way outside my (slight) knowledge area.

Marflex is the only factory authorized Linhof service center in the USA. In Canada it is Blazes . There are no parts for your camera available from the factory other then what may fit from current parts for more recent cameras.
