Paula the wife picked up this on her last shopping trip into our local town. This is so far the best condition Chassepot I have seen and both bayonet and scabbard are matching which is very nice. What do you think? and how much would you have paid for this??Attachment 891846 Attachment 891847 Attachment 891848 Attachment 891849 Attachment 891850 Attachment 891851 Attachment 891852 Attachment 891853

It's in lovely condition!

Hi!
Condition is very good for collection.
Price everywhere different.
I think - $150 ( + - 10%).

Nicest one I've seen in awhile ! Matching is always a bonus.
Agree with above estimate.........

Very good condition and matching. As mentioned above, prices vary in different parts of the world. I paid $175 AUD for mine a couple of years ago and yours is in better nick.

At least in Australia, a matching numbers example in this condition is not a very common find, I would happily pay 250 AUD.

The wife picked this one up for £90 which I was well pleased with. Years ago as a young lad I bought one for with Xmas money for £20!!! ahhh those were the days eh guys!
