I may consider selling them if there is a demand for these. They are for a AK-74 by the way. I think they are russian, but if I am wrong, by all means correct me.

They are east german, and now is a great time to sell, people are starting to pay ridiculous prices for these mags. A couple of months ago an east german mag would sell for 20 bucks now people are wanting around 40 and people are willing to buy them for whatever reason.

What do the numbers mean? I looked on gunbroker and from what I saw, they went for $40-$120 each. I take it these are not the high demand/low quantity ones for $120 each huh?

The numbers just represent the batch that they were made in, nothing really special about the numbers. East german mags arent the high dollar bakelites and 40 bucks is probably what you could get per mag presently.

I have sold 4 EG Bakelite mags full of ammo in a rain drop pouch for 250.00. YMMV

From my search on here and ak files seems like around $150-$175 is the going rate with the pouch. I may hold onto them for a little while longer.

The number represents the specific cavitiy in the tool that molds the mag body. If there were some issues with a specific cavitiy, this number would tell you where in the tool to start looking for the problem.
