It is a dynamic microphone, old design (70), easily recognized by its size, quite small, and its look very dated. Above all, the grid is a cluster of tiny metal balls, extremely durable, and very effective against plosives.
This beautiful gem (we see better in green on one foot) exists in several versions of connectors, mine is an "E" ie neutrik connector cannon-modern.

OVERALL OPINION

This little mic is good for all usages stage (vocals, percussion, winds), in reporting and in the studio, according to the desired effect, and this effect is very sensitive, it is a very pleasant velvety voice gave very vintage very typical. I love the color of this mic on vocals, and keeps carefully for it.
I bought a handful of figs years ago, and he sleeps in my safe (I understand he is sincerely looking now at this point).
My microphones (current or former) Sennheiser BF 521, akg D330 BT, akg D321, D55 Ramsa, Audix i5, Audix D4, akg D320, D130 akg, akg P5, P4 akg, Superlux S125, Electrovoice BK1, Beyerdynamic TG-X 480 .
Again this choice? As soon as the opportunity presents itself.
Value for money? Not applicable, it is a very specific subject, economics did not matter. Whether to give an order of magnitude, to 60 euros, skip it!
