Apparently this ammo can was found near a friend of mine's property due to the fact they did live exercises in this area back before world war II.  It's complete just the top box opened up and they're blanks so it's not like it's live ammo just curious what this could be worth a lot of Rusty parts. I'm located in Golden Valley Arizona and I'm sure they could be shipped but I have no idea how much they're worth

Those are for the M-60 MG, well past the WWII era 1960s.  Still used and found today.

Box worth $10-15  belt of the blanks in that shape may be $25-50.  Too much work to clean up in my opinion.

I think that advice is spot on and I thank you for taking the time to tell me it's just weird how much of it it's in this general area where I live now near the oatman highway rt 66.   I know this area was used heavily for world war II Gunner training and troop training and dismantle of the airplanes after the war.  The only reason I sat there and felt it was pre-wars because they haven't trained in this area since before the war.  Oh wait I may be wrong they used to have a reserves unit located in Kingman that may have used used this area for training bringing the possibility up to the '90s so I could be wrong.

When I was a Boy Scout, we camped on military reservations a lot, it seemed like we couldnt dig a fire pit with out digging up boxes like these full of blanks, The G,I.'s once in the field would bury them so the didnt have to carry them. We would dig up tons of unopened rations as well. I know some where eaten if they were clean & not to old. Most of the blanks where thrown in a pond to keep the younger ones from playing with them or tossing them in the fire.
