Default Value of a new cylinder head

My new to me car came with a new spare part 944 cylinder head. I'm more of a 951 guy, and while I've looked around, honestly, I'm not sure what the street value of this thing may be. Any thoughts?

The cylinder head dosn,t look new , it looks like it has been glass beaded, look at the rust on the studs and the discoloration behind the valves ! John

It's an early 6R head, which means it would have had to been NOS from the early 80's if it's new! A replacement head from from '87 on would be an 8R head. It would require a lot of parts to make this head whole, and with complete heads going cheap, it's not worth much these days, unfortunately.
