    Take a picture of the back also. I am assuming these are mid 70's and newer. That unfortunately means less value to most. The most wanted are the orange bars. I am only guessing, but if these are oem, they might be worth $25-30 for someone needing to fill a spot.

    The newer ones still go for $40...

    So a used up one like those shown is not worth much.

    The item with just "901" on the back appears to be an "orange bar" early version. The market for those has dropped. Maybe, $200?

    Better pictures of just that badge would be helpful.

    Actually NOT all 901 badges have the orange enamel...I have several of the 901 like this one,
    and they are 74 on up to??? dont know the cut off til the arrival of the ones with the long 911 number ( an original 77 hood I had came with this same 901 backing badge)
    the first of these was still using the 901 bases but with the "candied" red which was not enamel nor orange

    market dropped on everything but real nice original orange bars still command premium ( I sold 3 recently here $350 400 400) these are very nice but still not the most pristine I have which I wont sell but are valued at $500/800+
    an NOS one sold for $900. I have one...its in a safe place with the rest of the gold!

    you need a neutral background to show the reds better in case the 901 badge is enameled and orange.
    unless that 901 one is a pre 74 youve got about $40 bucks worth
    used red ones are like $10-15-20 on the BAY
    new ones like that are $35 just about anywhere

    Late orange bar crests also came with the 901 number in upper left corner-73? Maybe replacement crests in early 70's? Discussed in an earlier tread. I think the ones above are red bar crests.

    and of course you have the NEW replica orange bar, but those are cheesy looking and often passed as the original...beware!

    here's an example of a repro, this seller implies that its real, failing to inform buyers that its a replica!
    looks like he might have ended the auction under pressure

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3AIT&viewitem=

    quote from the auction: " In new condition " lmao... thats because it IS new! this seller is a joke!
    buyers last year bid one up like this to $584....I doubt someone paid it ...but who knows!!!
