0.5 inch Vickers Round.

Hi, Ian here from NZ. Trying to find out what a 0.5 inch Vickers round would be worth to buy and are there many on the market around the UK. Thanks Ian

The 12.7 x 81 rimless Vickers and the Vickers HV 12.7 x 120 are not rare and are often available in NZ through the NZ cartridge collector association auctions.
If you are a member you can bid (or maybe arrange for a member you know to bid or let you know if any come up for sale).
Value depends on the buyer but expect $80 minimum and more for the HV or special loadings.

You could also try quickfire auctions dot Co dot uk, they do turn up now and again.

They often turn up in the Australian Cartridge Collectors Assn auctions as well. I think there will be a few of both types in our Mid-Year auction in May 2025.
