Israeli 7.62 230 rounds linked

Found this in my garage, thought I'd post photos here for reference before I put it up for sale.

The tin is made by SCP and is a dark green colour inside and under the flat brown external paint. I don't read hebrew, but it held linked Israeli headstamped 7.62 ball when I bought it back in the 1990's.
