Came to me from a friend, any idea of value, sell separately or as 1 lot?

separately doubt many people apart from dealer would want the all
they can be from £1 to £5 round the radio rallies

I have a stash that looks very similar. I sold half-a-dozen at NVCF on Sunday, £1 or £2 each. There were still a few to take home.

While they're nice for restoring old equipment, it's often easier and cheaper to use digital meters when building stuff these days, so there's less demand than there used to be.

Hi Nukey, you can now start fitting them to all your projects and build your own voltmeters etc.
