              I really have no idea, they don't turn up that often. The big issue I see with yours is that they don't have the labels which were most likely lost when they were taken apart to be demiled. Considering though they were of limited issue, not manufactured to last since they were made of cardboard, and 65+ years have passed since they were made it's neat to see at least two survived. Wish I could help you out with that.

                  How much do you expect? They don´t have labels, don´t have right spoons, maybe even don´t have right fuzes... I can say you that a real complet one with markings and right fuze and spoon was sold in a site for 65 euro some months ago. Also, there is plenty of fakes of these cardboard grenades and I´m not saying yours are fakes.

                      As I told you before I´m not saying they are fake, but not in the nicest condition for an high price, you understand?
