Snagged 2 GermanM1898 quillback bayonets for what i believe was a good deal but I honestly dont know enough about these so i thought id see if yall might know about how much they each might be worth. Unfortunately i was not provided much info and pretty bad pics so i do apologize for that. Info below:
1.) The first is the better of the two. Least amount of rust, lower year, and intact grips it appears. Looks to be a 1905. The seller described it as "Imperial German Seitengewehr Model 1898 Pipe Back Bayonet By Simson & Co, Suhl For G98 Rifles & Scabbard. Circa 1902-17. Pipeback blade with swell point tip. It has a full central fuller. The ricasso is stamped by the manufacturer 'Simson & Co. Suhl'.".

2.) The second is in pretty rough shape. Broken/missing grips, very rusty, 1910-1916 date id say. The seller described it as "WW1 W.K & Cie Solingen Bayonet in Scabbard. Early 1900s. Maker's mark on ricasso. f.".
