Any value to all brass 12 ga shells?

Going though a box of misc shooting stuff from my late father in law I came across half dozen all brass shotgun shells with a wax and cardboard seal on the end.

 

The cardboard are printed some O and some OO so I'm assuming these are buck shot.

 

Base is simply stamped 12 GA

 

No idea the vintage on these. Are they worth anything? Otherwise they're just cool to have.

If you unloaded them they would make great re-useable poppers or louder blanks if you add some powder and cork the end.

 

I'd take them, but it's much easier for me to buy primer popper shells with no powder, wad, or shot in them from Fiochii.

 

Your shells could be from WWI. Paper shells wouldn't hold up in the wet trenches.

 

I do know someone who would want them. He wouldn't pay much for them. I should see him Thursday night.
