It should be dated somewhare on it...look for a small circle moulded into the rubber near the eyepieces.I have one here with me and its just behind the left hand eyepiece.Also mine is dated on the rubber cover on the front.
You have an M17 mask, the m17a1 masks had a tube that attached to a canteen so you could drink without removing the mask.Does the decon kit have the contents?
As for value?£20ish..they are fairly common.
