Tough one.

If it is the Animal I remember, with the x57 style frame, and xtr bits, it is rarer.

If it is the 857, it is easier to sell. The 857 is potentially faster too.

Eventually the 857 is a better better bike, but again the 97 animal is the better collector item.

I bought the Beast in 1997. It was either move up to suspension and safety or quit riding. I crashed so many times on my hardtail it was not funny.

What a great bike that was. I wanted the Animal, but it was a lot more money. I rode that Beast hard too.
