not sure if the right section for this

recently laid my hands on a night vision scope from a friend as a novelty gift for clearing his loft out with him (its been up there for a few years)
just wondering, do any of you have any experience/knowlege of wether its a good one or not? what it would be worth (not sure wether to keep it, he told me do what i want with it) any ideas would be appreciated

it is a cyclops-m1 1,2/85 code-9401623
this is the stuff it says around the lens

here is an internet image of what it looks like

iphone pic of it

well you see i havnt got a clue what its worth tbh, only link i found on the net was saying $499

(edit) just seen a link from 2010 on ebay.de showing just the lense off this bad boy for $450!!!!!!
from what iv read this is a military night vision scope

yeh from what iv been reading, some people use just the lense off it on other camera's for hi res shots, i could be wrong if im honest, but i know nothing about camera's and stuff
