No, no, no, ignore him.  They're only worth five cents.  Kind soul that I am, I'll
take them all off your hands for a dime each!  ;)

Seriously, though, Bruce is right--they're quite valuable if in excellent

incomplete without shako to $5.00 for perfect condition with shako, musket, and
epaulettes.  YMMV.
