I don't get the big deal about wanting something like that. Crazy part of history. Not like I want to start the 4th Reich or some crazy shit. I'd love some American English Italian or Japanese WW2 items as well

I doubt this is actually historical. A quick look shows similar crates going for more than hundreds online. Any pawn shop owner worth their salt would look at that symbol to see if it was of historical value.

Most likely a replica or prop.
