What kind of Broadheads??

I was wondering what kind of broadheads these are. They are a silver or crome looking and 125 grains. I'm not sure what they are, maybe Bodkins? Are they worth anything? Thanks for any help you can give me.

All the Bodkins I'm looking at (about 3 dozen), have a sharper angle from the ferrule to edge on back of blade then your pics are showing. They also all have Bodkin imprinted on the ferrule. None of them have holes in the ferrule as your pics are showing.
This doesn't mean they aren't Bodkins, just that they aren't the same as the ones I've used over the past 40 years. I haven't bought any since the early 80's, they could have made some changes.

1955 Bod Kin "A" with .8 notched laminate. Neat old head but quite plentiful as far as collectors go..I'd take-um hunting.

Yep. what others have said. I use a smaller version of them for small game. Will certainly work on bigger critters, of course.

Whiffen Bodkins. A very popular head in its day.
