Lot 163:
100 Rounds Sellier & Bellot Tactical Ammunition 7.62x39mm FMJ 124 Grain
Description
This lot consists of 100 rounds of Sellier & Bellot centerfire rifle ammunition in 7.62x39mm caliber. The collection is housed in five original 20-round cardboard boxes with an olive drab and tan color scheme. Each box is printed on the front with the manufacturer name Sellier & Bellot, Tactical Ammunition, and 20 Naboju Cartridges / Patronen Cartouches alongside a rampant lion crest. The end flaps provide technical specifications including 7,62×39, FMJ (Full Metal Jacket), 124grs 8.0g, Bullet No. 2907, and product code #SB76239A.
The cartridges are organized within the boxes in white plastic grids. Each cartridge features a brass case and a copper-jacketed projectile. The headstamps are clearly legible and display a centered primer surrounded by the characters S, &, and B at the top, 7,62×39 at the bottom, and the number 21 on the side. An interior flap on one of the boxes bears a blue ink-stamped date reading 07 07 94, which is consistent with the packaging design and manufacturer address from the 1990s.
Condition report:
The original cardboard boxes show moderate shelf wear and handling marks throughout. Visible defects include surface abrasions and white scuffing to the olive green finish on the front and top panels of all five boxes (photo 1). There is minor corner crushing and softening of the edges consistent with storage (photo 2). The cartridges themselves appear well-preserved with no visible signs of corrosion or significant tarnishing to the brass cases or copper jackets (photo 3).
