By "mascot" I assume you refer to the bombsight hood ornament? Depends on the condition. If it's mint (i.e. no pits in the pot metal with good chrome) it will be worth substantially more than a pitted one. I would guess somewhere between £25 and £200 depending on condition (so you can see how much it would vary). The biggest problem is finding someone that wants one.

If you're talking about the straight chrome ornament on a Special (rather than a Super or Roadmaster) then much less.

I've owned a '49 and '52 so I have some knowledge of this.
