Two great 15mm boxes.
I remember in 1973 I earned $ 66 per week before tax and drove to Melbourne ,Vic and spent $50 on the empty box of 15mm Pinfires. The rounds were selling for $25 each at the time.
I drove home wondering why I wasted a weeks pay on an empty box.
I still have not found another one same as Daniel’s one. Now I say I did well but not worth a weeks pay at this moment. Cheers.

What a nice box! Daniel or Fede, Can you post a picture of this beside something common so people can realize the size of this? I bet it is massive!

That is a very nice box in fact both are. Below a 25 size label / box top & it is 4 inches across.
