Nice find. These outer cups listed in the later Wholesale Price List of Parts (Aug. 1,1926), like other T parts, were sold in Lots of 10, Lots of 100, Lots of 1000 and also for Each.
Here is the listing for Factory #2955, Part No. T-2833 'Front hub bear. cup inner' 1919-26
Price each, .50 Price 10 per lot $3.50 , so only in Lots of 10 or by each.
You have that 10-Pack.

Thanks Steve and Dan,
I think I am missing a few.
Do you think it is still worth $3.50

Can see about 4 in that round carton, so at today's price of $27 each (BTW they were $19 in 2019!).... you have about $100 worth.
Back in '27 Ford's wholesale price of each @ .50 would be today's value of $9.
