Identify ammo obsolete? collectable? valuable?

I am new to discussion boards and forums so I may be asking a dumb question to you guys. I bought a lot of ammo at an estate sale most of the ammo was ammo I can use for my stash, but there was some that I do not have a need for and looks to be older than what I've seen around lately. I've read on other forums and sites that these may be obsolete, collectable, or valuable. That brings me to this forum and my question. I would like to know if these boxes are obsolete, collectable, or of any value and if valuable how would I go about selling them. I am attaching pics of the ammo

Welcome Jaxon Texan,
It looks like you have both 44-40 and 44 Remington Magnum. The 44-40 is still sold today as a cowboy action load, and 44 Remington Magnum is extremely popular.
Selling ammo is not difficult, shipping it is. https://forums.gunbroker.com/discussion/1800878/shipping-ammunition-firearms-hazmat#latest
The Remington green/yellow box was made from 1974 through '84. The '85 through '96 box is the same in color but different/more wording.
As others have said, shooting ammo. GunBroker shows 44/40 ammo for $1+ per round so you might not want to just give it away.
