    My understanding is that 90 Euros is a lot more than <$100 but would be pleased to be wrong  :-)

    Yes this is the common inverting scope 6x or 7x that one finds with SNO-Ms and SNO-T. The scope itself is worth less than 100$. It can be had at RegioZeist, a Dutch seller, http://www.regiozeist.nl/eng_scheeps_sextant_freiberger_parts.htm, for 90 Euros.

    So would that be the famed inverting scope with grid we see on the sextant?
    Perhaps worth the price just for the scope?
