Thanks for the decoding, I bought them in the early 1990s from a gun dealer in Texas. |

Love these posts. I must of combed Iowa for 2 or 3 years to buy up every compression 16 gauge box of ammo I could find. I usually paid between $4 and $6 per box. |

cntrmass: Case received, Very Pleased. Thank you!!
elmo123: I'm a little confused regarding the date coding. If it repeats every 20 years there would need to be 4 more letters omitted beside A&Z Any info on the other 4? |

I, J, O, Q & Z are the others that aren't used and as to the why that's something I can't answer. |

When someone asks "What are these worth?", is he starting an auction, or getting an appraisal for insurance purposes or justification of financing. |
