Nazi Ammo 8mm
MOONED

Ok, So I found over forty boxes of German production 8mm ammo still in the box. The information on the boxes is as follows:
10 Stuck
8mm M. 30 scharfe
S-Patronen
Rottw.
Behind all the information above is a BIG red S
On the left-hand side of the box the stamp of a bullet, with the eagle over swastika and 12 635 below. The ammo is on stripper clips with five rounds on each. There are two clips in each box. One clip has the eagle over swastika, and the other clip has a different sign, but I can't really tell what it is.
The bullet casings themselves have the information as follows:
Top VIII
Bottom eagle over swastika
Left 19
Right 38 or 39
I found quite a bit of this ammo and will make the purchase, but was curious of the value. Does anyone have a clue by the description I have provided?
EDIT:
I guess I should have looked at "sold" auctions before putting a topic on theis side. It does look like there is a bunch out there, but I can buy the whole lot for a good price. Below is a link to a recent sold auction that is identical, except what I have found is in better condition.

Don't "flood the market"......Let me do that[:)]
8X56R.
+1 and in the stripper clips for the M95 rifle. Highly corrosive
I sure would like to have one of those strippers in my collection...
Send me your address thru my profile. One of them {and maybe some other old strippers clips} will be in the mail to you. I have lots of them.
Too old to live...too young to die...
That's not 8x57 for '98 Mauser ammo, it's 8x50 for the M95 straight pull Steyr rifle/carbine.
I think you will find that is 8x56 ammo.
I think that Heer is the name of the German Army.
Heer is the name for the Basic german army it does not inclue the SS or any other german forces as Wermacht includes all german armed forces including SS. Wermacht is the term for german armed forces.
