Default M 41 field jacket help

Can anyone give me a ball park value on an M41? It is a size 34R, some wear to cuffs and collar. Zipper does not work but all buttons are present and no holes, rips or stains. Looks good on a mannaquin. Thanks.

Its a smaller size, and most want them larger so they can actually wear them . Broken zipper with cuff wear...about $60 I would say. M43's can be found for $40.

M43s are plentiful and cheap. M41, not so much. $60 for a small one with a broken zipper is about right, but I suspect some would pay even more. Nice ones in good sizes are $150+ items.

I thought M-41's have no zippers. At least the one I have has buttons only.

They have both.
Would agree (keeping in mind not seeing it) $60 retail.

Thanks for the info guys. Lots of great knowledgeable volks here. I'm selling off one of my GI set ups to fund more Kraut stuff. Go figure. Thanks.
