Is there a market for this 3 inch 50 caliber round?

The wood is in excellent condition considering it's 1944 production (I think).

The base reads:
329486-B-6 HMC 1944
MK 6 50 CAL 3 DUMMY CARTRIDGE with an anchor stamped into the base between the B-6 and HMC. It's 35" tall, 4.5 inches in diameter at the base rim, and weighs almost 24 pounds.

I've searched for reference material on US forums but can't seem to find a lot. Is there an community for this in the US?

Thanks!

In answer to your question(s), YES. There is a market and this is, by far, the premier "community" for such things.

Your example is one of the cleaner specimens I've seen. Many are in much worse shape. You have one of at least 3 versions.
