Age advice - Percussion Cap Tins?

[Marcruger]

Hi Folks,

I came into six percussion tins filled with caps.  I am trying to figure out how old they are.  Here is a photo of the front:



The top two are RWS and say Made in Western Germany, so I am guessing 1945 to 1990 range.  Sealed.

The next two are vintage "Remington Arms Company, Inc,. Bridgeport Conn." United States Musket Caps tins.  I am guessing 1880 to around WWI period? 

Bottom left is a green Remington UMC "Central Fire" Percussion Caps tin.  Still sealed.  I am guessing 1930s or 1940s?
Bottom right is another Remington tin.  I think it is recent, meant to look old? 





I would really appreciate any advice from the experts.
God Bless,   Marc

Neat find, Marc!  I can’t help any with ages, but they sure look like they’re in excellent condition.

I used to buy the top 2 (RWS) from Dixie in the 1950's.  The bottom right (white) Remington can is from about 1970. Have no idea on the others.

Many thanks.  I found out that the small green one is pre-1922.  Interesting.   :-)    God Bless,   Marc
