Looks like the figure is carrying a football, interesting, thought the stars may signify Alaska but they may be battle stars?

 

Best guess: Submarine with 9 battle stars?

Looks like a variation of the VT-81 (Torpedo Squadron-81). Seems to be US made, WWII era. Not sure on the price, hope this helps,
Mark

Spot on TBM, my second guess was a Torpedo Squadron. Eight stars over One makes total sense for VT-81

Yes just found d it, from ballston spa NY. My friend told me he might have more stuff coming in from the relative. But being a pawn shop probably doesn't care about selling piecemeal. Just as long as he sells it. It's 20 minutes from me, I'll take a ride down there and see if I can make a deal.
