[Collins] What Is It?

I have what I believe to be a Collins part that I have had for literally
years.  This is the third state I've moved it to, over 30 years.!  It's
brand new and unused.

It's a deep drawn aluminum can, with a small variable cap, two section
pi-wound, slug-tuned coil, three caps and a resistor.  I'm guessing it's
a BFO can, but ...

It has three Collins style part numbers.

278 0541 00   This number has a line drawn through it.

X 328 2 CCC

525 2122 002  The first two digits are unclear and may be incorrect.

7-70  Date code.

So.  I'd like to know what it is, and if it's worth keeping.  I suspect
it's one of those things no-one needs until they need it, but then they
need it BAD!
