    These are pretty hard to find in this range.  A few people have built a low-voltage, suppressor-modulated part-15 AM transmitter out of these with an appropriate pentode.
    There is
    flat shipping on these with no additional shipping charge for more than one item.
    This
    means you get a pretty nice discount when ordering more than one.  If you order more than one make sure you use the "Add to cart" button before purchasing so you don't get charged twice for shipping.  I can usually combine with other small items I'm selling to save more (see my Ebay store for more crystals).  Just ask for an invoice before paying or send me a message and I can send you an invoice.
    Pictures are representative, not exhaustive.  There will likely be stickers, signal-corps stamps, some discoloration, etc. as is typical of this 70-year-old stuff.  All crystals are tested for oscillation and that the frequency is near what is marked, consistent with aging and tolerances that are typical.
    Go build something fun!
