The 27 pistols were reported to be worth $200K Australian, about $134K in US dollars. That would be to collectors. Hard to say on the black market. First, the pistols would have to be made functional. Parts were separated from the pistols to make sure they were not functional in the display cases. There are fairly clear pictures of the display cases from which the 27 pistols were stolen, in the article.

The vertical display case on the left is the first display case which was broken into. The two display cases which were broken into were both in the Ron Hayes Room of the Lithgow Museum.

They should have thought to make the museum a gun free zone, then the criminals couldnt have picked them up.
I really deserve a government job.

Probably all of them are chambered for some long discontinued cartridge.
