As a Repro, no more than maybe $75 US, thats because the case may be a '57 issue.

I personally would not even pay $75.00 however in all fairness I did see one sell on the e-stand awhile back for over $800.00. best wishes,

[Stephen Stout]

Thanks...The guy wanted $500 for it.

The case is pretty rough on the top.

I'd be temped to wait for another to come along ...

Actually, these are pretty collectable these days. Often real recipients of the RK wore these before the 57 versions came out. If you don’t want to spend the dough on an original. If you don’t want to spend a fortune on a nice, early high quality 57, this is the next best thing. I actually have one I keep next to my original since it is a sort of a neat piece. From what I have seen these sell for, I don’t think 500 dollars is a bad price. I will happily buy everyone I can find for 75 dollars. Just my opinion.
Best Wishes,
Bob

I agree with Bob; in fact I will outbid Bob and give $80 for everyone of these you can send me.

Like it or not, Souvals have become collectable in their own right. They make a decent representation of the RK for the poor mans display, and even though they are repros there are still links to the TR era, and a great history amongst collectors being perhaps the 'original' fake.



What does a rounder sell for?

How about a post war S&L?


Al

honest price $250+ for the cross.

I guess the question has to be asked of Stephen ....

Did you know that this one was a fake?

Hello Stephen, the case looks like a recent copy. I would pay $250 for the set going by these pics.

The frame of the cross looks like it has paint on it? Or is it me? A touched up Souval?

I wonder does anyone know where I could purchase a good quality L/58 RK?

They are being sold at Ebay from time to time.

Yes I know it is. Hell for a real RK w/ swords and Oak leaves it would be $30,000.00 at least. I am just a poor junior Army Officer wanting a Souval or S&L RK.
