Looks like a basic port; nothing fancy. Perhaps from mid 60's? Has an older style selo tag.

I agree with Moses - these look like basic Ports to me.
For reference, auctions.catawiki.com sold a lot exactly like this 6 months ago for $81. That's about what I would have expected... no more than $25-$30 per bottle.

The T-stoppers also suggest these were not Ports intended for ageing. I concur with Glenn and Moses.

A white and red. The red most likely being an unfiltered or lightly filtered ruby reserve. Though interesting they also put the disclaimer about sediment for the white as well. Not worth much these days other than a curiosity, unfortunately.
As for age, I would hazard a guess they were from some point in the mid 1970's to mid 1990's. But that is pure speculation based on the capsule condition.

Yes, due to Cuneo on labels, I'd think mid-late 1980s.
