In 2000, the price for a 6 digital red star is only 50RMB in China, about $6. Sometimes you can get a 5 digital red star with the same price. I paid 45RMB, about $5.3, for my first WWII OGPW 2nd w/n 34XXXX .One dealer sold it as the same as the 1985 issued. I think the trade price was much lower at the border. A dealer told me that she got hundreds of OGPW 1st and 2nd 1985 issued for only $1 a piece. :speechless1:
