It's a IIIa manufactured in 1936. No one can appraise it w/o seeing
it. You have to provide much more detailed info before someone can
even give you a range of values. There are collectors on here that,
when provided with details on where it differs from new in both
appearance and function, can at least give you a range of value
subject to inspection.
