Gentlemen,
I have some 45 Colt ammo that has a US marked primer. Does this have any collectable value?
Thank You,
Jay E. Crowder

  Some, but don't plan your retirement around the sale of it.
  The marking means it was factory loaded with smokeless powder (vs the unmarked ones that were loaded with BP). IIRC It's pre-WW-1 era.
