Sears 30-06 cases

I have a very small collection of 30-06 cartridges/cases and the family of various calibers derived from the -06 case. I don't spend a lot of time on this but when I find something interesting, I add to the collection.

A couple of days ago, I was sorting -06 cases by manufacturer. I found three Sears cases. At some point in the past, I sized and de-capped all of these cases so these Sears cases went through this process. Now, I'm not thinking of retiring from the value of any of my collection and I don't know if the Sears cases are rare, but to retain any value they may have, should I seat a bullet or leave the case the way it is?
 
Don't mess with them, some collectors like empty cases, some like fired cases, some like cases with bullets but no powder, and some like loaded rounds.
 
They were likely made by Winchester. Winchester generally made center-fire ammo for Sears and Federal made their shotgun ammo.
