Does anyone have any information on this stuff, mainly what is it worth.  I might be able to get a good amount of this I just have no idea of its value.  

The box says
AB22
20 Patronen
7.62mmx51, DM 41
Weichkern

Headstamp is MEN-75-24 also has a NATO cross.  
It is brass cased with a copper bullet.  The bullet is strongly magnetic though.  It has a crimped primer with green sealant.  

I assume the was manufactured in 1975.  I have also heard it is berdan primed and non-corrosive.

Very good surplus with the AB22 bullet that is supposed to have wicked terminal ballistic performance in soft tissue . Weichkern means "soft core": soft lead core with a steel jacket. It more than likely has silver "cupronickel" gilding metal over the steel jacket. It's Berdan primed.

I bought some very similar German DAG 6-9 months ago for .55/rd, which I thought was a little high. Consider that you can get Prvi Parisan for .60/rd when you can find it, and it's reloadable.

Good to know it is good stuff.  I will definitely have to pick it up then.  I wish it was boxer primed though, guess you can't have everything.
