Trying to figure out what these are, no markings other than "Campagnolo" script, recessed bolt mounting and they appear to have had something mounted in the bolt, Cobalto's maybe?

Those look to me like Victory calipers, but I'm not 100% certain. Definitely not Cobaltos.

Thanks, hard to tell when there are no names or numbers other than the brand!

I think they are Triomphe. Victory has a slightly different shape to the arms and did not have the hole in the capnut. atleast according to Velobase

So from the pictures it looks like Triomphe to me too, if I were to ebay these what kind of value might I expect?

+1. Triomphe. I think around $20-30 maybe more in a good week
