Bill convinced me that the scope is of very good quality so must have been expensive to produce. The "problem" that you mentioned is not a problem at all. These sextants were supplied with two telescopes, the star scope we have been talking about and also an inverting scope of greater magnification for use with the sun. See the photo I attached to my previous post:
