6.5 Jap Gallery rounds.

HELP, What is this???I picked out of the dud box at my range some gold. Original 6.5 Jap "Gallery rounds". No head stamp at all. Looks, to the common reloader, that the bullets were put in backwards, but are not. The projectile is sealed w/ a red paint or something. My research from today on Forgotten Weapons is that this 1 of 2 types of rounds made for training Japanese children to fight for the mainland. I found about 25. Thoughts on pricing? I have seen 2 that were sold for 80.00 for the pair. WOW. Did the dud box give me gold??? The bullets are mostly one size, but there are 4 + cases that are longer maybe 7.7 Jap Gallery rounds and 3 Norma rounds you see in the pix w/ soft points as hats.

That's what you found, nice collectible rounds. I see them in the $15-20 range. On the right day you could get more, from the right person.
