I'm bidding on this auction... I mainly want XN-12 for collection, so  if i win the auction, i offer two of the XN12 to the group for trading or a fair price.

Vice versa, if anyone out of the group gets this auction, i would be very interested to buy or trade a XN12 for my collcetion!

I'd be interested in the other two CD-66 looking ones.

Jonathan,

I would be very surprised if it closes any where near the current bid as there will be quite a few people after those XN-12s to either make up a set or to add to their collections.

Good luck with it!

Here is a closer view of what I believe to be ZM1175s in that offer. The CD66 has a different anode mounting tab compared to these. Could be wrong though.

I don't have any XN-12's, but do have XN-13's with copper mesh if that is of any interest. They appear to be NOS - if you want one for your collection, you would be welcome. David.

Yep, that was crazy. I only have a slightly used XN-12 from some circuit board, but it has rather short leads because of that. But at these prices I am out. ;-) Jens

The fight for the other auction from the same seller with two Ericsson (ETL) GR10W was a bit harder!

I have one XN12 but I never seen exactly this marking on other tubes. Is it XN12A, or that A has nothing to do with the type of the tube? I didn't find any info about that...

Some Japanese tubes have an A version that is rated for a higher current. Another possibility: Are there more than 11 leads?

No, there are only 11 leads, so no decimal point or similar.
