Any keris that is a gift has a value beyond that of rubies.
It may never be sold.
Regretably the photos are little less than adequate to allow any appraisal, so at this time I wish to reserve comment, however, detailed inspection of the presentation of the pamor seems to indicate faint angular lines running across the pamor. It could well be that this blade carries pamor nginden, which would make it a scarce and desireable keris.
May I suggest that you try looking along the length of the blade from the handle end, and see if something like a pattern of shadows appearing as lines across the blade, or possibly "X"'s, can be seen.
