Grenade question

Is this just a practice grenade and not a combat grenade since it doesn't have the yellow? I wanted to know before selling. Also I was going to sell it and ask around $150. That should be a fair price since its from ww2 right? I just bought another so I don't need 2. Thanks for the help.

To me it looks like a nice WW2 grenade and fuse. I see the bottom is drilled so at some point it became a practice grenade. Probably repainted which lost the yellow stripe, might have been repainted to cover a light blue paint used to designate practice. Price is fair.

Unfortunately,it's difficult to tell with just the one picture. Are there any markings on the grenade body? Can you show a picture of the bottom? If the bottom has a hole in it, is the hole threaded or smooth sided? Is the handle embossed on the top? If so can you show a picture of that?

 

The green color is probably a re-paint but depending on the other markings it may or may not be a practice grenade.

From the pics on the for sale thread..looks like a practice grenade over painted green with a post WWII pull pin..It also looks to have the upgraded/modified hammer pivot pin.
