hello everyone, i have a gun camera i'd like to sell, but for the life of me have no idea how much it's worth, can anyone help me appraise it? i have no idea if it still works or not but there is no obvious damage to it beyond 70 years of wear.

On the data tag it says "Property of US Army Air Forces" and then under that it says "Camera, gun". I can make out N-6 in the line below that, is there anything else legible on that line? It's definitely an N-6 but I'm not an expert on sub types. I've got one that's just labeled as N-6 and it's slightly different than yours.

Here's an AN-N6 on eBay that looks pretty similar to yours. It looks like the going rate for any N-6 on eBay is in the $100 range.

wow, looks like these things are a bit more common, or atleast are't in as much demand as i might've thought.

thanks guys for your input, it is much appreciated.
