How rare is the optical sight for a Maxim MG?

I've been searching for my second attempt at a first Luger (was burned badly by my first purchase but was able to get rid of it) and I came across a neat item today. It's a WWI German optical sight (like a tiny periscope) that is for the Maxim 08 Machine Gun. It has a dial on the left side and a leather case that comes with it and it fits inside perfectly. I've never seen one of these before, but I'm still new to the game. How rare is one of these things and what do they normally go for? It's worn and the fellow said it was missing a rubber eyepiece.

I really like it.
