Probably 7x35, single blue coated. Perhaps 1960s.
This is a lot better than the extra wide angle Korean binoculars that were very shoddy around 1970s.
The binocular shown seems to be a regular Porro with perhaps 3 element eyepieces.
May be quite good if well aligned and clean inside.
Perhaps £15 in good clean condition.

Not to worry; there are plenty of long-standing "professionals" out here who can't clinically collimate a binocular either.
I am saddened, though, by the number of people I hear about every year who undertake the repair without considering the critical task that awaits its completion. :cat:
Good luck
