What do you fellas think? Was this a good find? Is it worth a dime? Attachments:

That picture was enormous for some reason. Heres a different angle. The lure is in surprisingly good shape, no rust, original hardware, body looks great. Attachments:

Can I PLEASE please please get some input from SOMEBODY on this bait? I know I've seen similar lures on Ebay that sell high but I have NO idea if this bait is in the same class as those. All I know is I picked it up at a tackel store in a big pile of lures, that's it. I don't care if it's not worth 50 cents, I wanna know!
Please Help

If its a sfr-5 CW, which is what it appears to be then youre probably looking at about $10-$15. Some of the SFR-7's we've seen go for nearly $100, thats NIB and a larger size. Nice lure, i recently just picked one up as well but its to fish with.

If you're planning on collecting I would stick with the ones in boxes, but it can get rather expensive as the Shallow Fat Raps always hold their value and can get insane prices at times.
I still use my Shallow Fat Raps today and they are bass killers - get a couple of SFR-7s in Silver and Gold and you're all set...

I have seen a SFR-5 RB go for $327, SFR-7 SD (teal tag) for $190, SFR-5 SD (teal tag) for $190, SFR-7 HT for $187. I don't know if they would get this price now or not. I have seen all of these go for this price more than one time except for the SFR-5 RB.....I have only seen 1 of these. If you are going to collect the SFR's, you better prepare yourself just in case they do. Hopefully you can find them cheaper

Haha. I just wish I had found it new in the box. Oh well.... maybe I'll get a new Rapala out of it. And thanks so much for the help, I feel 100% better knowing what I have now.

Oh and Jmc it says (SFR-5-Finland) on the lip. And it looks like any lure would that's been out of the box for years, it's just scuffed up here and there, but no rust.
