Very common, just wander into any of the "militaria" shops.
It is worth maybe $10-$20. |

I've got an old ammo box in my room I use to store old Ford/Mountain Bike mags in (Read: Porn mags)
Bought it for $20ish at a local army disposal store.

xf falcon, I have one too, but it's probably worth a bit more than yours. It's full of .303 ammo. Inside is a metal can and it's a bit like a tin of sardines with a little key type thing to open her up, which I haven't of course.
I have a 2 three 0's, but buy my ammo rather than crack this open.

there may be some of these around with historical significance - ergo more value possibly ALOT of value might be an idea to check the numbers etc on it to make sure its not historically significant
that is cool btw I would keep that
