E.C. Is Evansville Chrysler, 1944 production. It is steel cased and corrosive. Complete boxes of it are collectible. Trashed out boxes or a few loose rounds not so much. $30-35 in this day and age easily for a whole box of 50.

This is repacked earlier ammunition; it will likely have various headstamps if the box is opened, some of which may be WWI date.

I did some googling and found out exactly what you guys said. I got 8 box's from the guy and some are opened and some are still sealed. Thanks much for the info
