Value of any rifle depends on the condition. The bayonets are difficult as most Peruvians are not marked as such. They do tend to have a specific font of numbers stamped into them as rack numbers but this is only guess work. In other words, they are unmarked export bayonets that the Peruvians stamped ID numbers into the hilt. You could use most any Mauser bayonet if you just want one to fit.

There are earlier bayonets which are definitely Peruvian as they have the crest on the hilt and these may very well have been used on these but they are most likely not the appropriate ones.
