Definitely some value. They are dated in the 70s so not anything epic, just nice display pieces. Can not really comment on value. Maybe $25 ea? At least they aren’t polished.

Maybe not from a US ship but from a Canadian one. My old ship, the H.M.C.S. Mackenzie, had 3”50 guns and those casings are made by IVI.

Primer by Canadian Arsenals, case by IVI.

your local naval museum might appreciate a donation for one of their displays. about 20 years ago a scrap collector friend of mine donated some 3 inch inert practice shells that he picked up at an auction to a museum in Calgary. they were marked INERT on the blue paint....

Says inside one of them in tape “Yukon last shots”. It looks like they could be the final 6 fired from the HMCS Yukon before being decomissioned.

Damn, I wouldn't mind one of those casings. I was a 3.50 102 operator on the Yukon. I have an empty casing from her 3.50 but one of those would be special.
