They're steel, well-formed, and they're actually the correct size, unlike modern Singer-brand class 66 bobbins. I tested them in my two 99K's and my 500A and they fit perfectly. I searched around and found a store called Gold Star that sold sewing machine accessories and I thought they might be the same people so ordered some through them, but they are NOT the same as these ones from Amazon. The ones from Amazon are superior. I think they're on par with the vintage bobbins.

Most often it's for an older machine, so it just got moved along with any other sewing supplies.

My Standard (stout) rotary came with an almost compete set of Singer VS2 attachments.
I looked at a Davis VF machine ones, that came with a full set of Greist attachments - for a rotary zigzag machine.

Right now I have a little gremlin that likes to steal bobbins. He's quite careful about it, except once he gets to the floor, he likes the noise they make and I hear it and retributive them. He's also started stealing pins - very carefully pulls them out of the pin cushion. He also loves playing around the sewing machines - gets up and sits on top of the longarm too. At least he's only unwound three rolls of TP so far.

To the OP - if you post pictures, some of the bobbins are really easy to tell what they are for, and if most of yours are the same, we may be able to figure that out for you.
