I built this collection up when I was a kid. Moved out of my parents house and completely forgot about it until recently. I was wondering does anyone know the value of these and where I could sell them? Also What is the weird looking one to the left of the cut up shell? any help is appreciated!

Well, ebay won't allow them. I would just list them here and convince everyone that nothing is live.

here's a pic of the bottom. So does anyone know if anything in here is uncommon, rare? Or is this just common stuff. There's not a lot of info on the web about these.

I will give you my opinion...

 

1st from the left - Don't know, as Dave commented, possibly part of a WWI rod grenade set-up, WWI isn't my bag so I can't say without a little research...could be pretty scarce, but value depends on what it is, and whats missing if anything...

 

2nd - Trench art made from what looks like a 37mm Hotchkiss, there are some out there who collect trench art, but value will be pretty low, maybe $25 to $35 to right guy...

 

3rd - Looks like a .50 cal case with odd projectile, does it pull out, is it a lighter? Otherwise would need pics of headstamp and projectile to figure it out...again, if trench art, minimal value, .50's in general don't have muchvalue unless they are something special...

 

4th - Looks like some sort of 37mm AP projectile, very narrow driving band, need to see of there are any markings on base or by driving band to determine more...depending on what it is, could be worth something, maybe $25 to $65 depending....

 

5th - 75mm Pack Howitzer case...WWII, worth $25 to $50 maybe...depends on buyer and how fast you want to move it.

 

6th - 40mm case, $25...

 

7th - 20x110 USN Dummy, $25

 

8th, 9th - .50 cal, AP and ball, fired....$5 each...

 

10th - 20mm projectile of some sort, looks like ball, maybe AP...$5

 

11th - Some sort of short cased 20mm, any headstamp? Likely $5-$25....

 

12th - Probably best piece in there, 30mm GAU 8 round for A-10 gun...$50-$75

 

13th - Big fuze...don't know would have to see markings, likely $25 maybe a little more...

 

Nothing rare, all pretty common, not huge value...and again, these prices are retail, if you sell the as a lot, likely would get less than total...

 

They are all inert, no issues there...

It is a United States M34 White Phosphorus Grenade Body missing the fuze well.

 

Stay safe,
