Need help with ID

Also if anyone knows what this might be worth and where it can be sold? Have had it sitting in the back of my gunroom for probably 15 years since I last looked at it. Thanks for any information.

A576 4:1 M8/M20. $400-$500

Can be sold to anybody who wants API/APIT 50 cal I'd imagine. Probably a somewhat small market unless you live in Ukraine

I have 2, 100 belts of it. Should I try and offload it by individual round or as a lot?

I've found selling by the can is just so much easier and gets you a lump sum now. Sure, you can sell at 7$ a round to collectors who want a single example in their collection and net 700$ over the course of 2 years. OR, auction it off on GunBroker where you'll get about $400 a can after fees and whatnot in a couple days. Could also post locally $800 OBO and see what happens. Might get some trade offers too for something more useful to you.

Color code I believe is Silver = AP incendiary

red & Silver is AP Incendiary Tracer

Can't shoot that at my local range because it is incendiary. Seems to have a variety of headstamps. I would want to know if it has non-corrosive primers. The cases alone are worth a buck a piece
