Default Extra set of #62 heads. Need help for me to decide what I should do with them.

When I bought my '69 GTO last year, the engine had been completely disassembled. I got 2 sets of #62 heads with it.
The original set that the engine came with from the factory at one time had had hardened valve seats installed in them. This was done done by a prior owner to the guy that sold me the car. Not long after he bought it, one of the heads dropped a seat. The damage done to the head and block wasn't that severe but he opted to find a virgin set of heads and he found a set that even had a date code very close. He had those gone through by a machine shop with new valves. So these heads are the ones I used for the engine build.

Here's photos of the old original heads:











I'd like to sell them but I don't know if they would be desirable to anyone or not. Plus I have no idea what they would be worth to know if they are even practical to try and sell. Not much market for these locally since I live in smallish city and the big cities (Dallas, San Antonio and Austin) are all about 200 miles away from here.

Anyway, advice of any kind will be appreciated.
