Hi Tom,
if this are 3,5" floppies, then they could be from a company, which intended to devellop hardware and software for Apple Lisa 2 in the early 80ies. I live only 5km far away from this company. In the mid 80ies the company was closed and I gathered some equipment, when they were selling off complete rooms. I placed my bid for a room with plenty of furniture, tables and chairs. I won and I had to take away the complete interior of the room. This was a huge plant a so called "Gummibaum", curtains, and 7 computers, a printer, plenty of cards and when I was loading a rented VW-Bus, a guy came to me and gave me a box of disks with the words: "probably you will need this too" The company was "Schneider Computers" and years later I found out, that I bought the development's room, containing 7 Lisas 2. This was the most valuable part of the whole lot. The disks were mainly Boot- disks for the Lisa 2 and some disks for the Lisa server. The development's guys were working on a card for Lisa 2, which should be able to get digital files into sound. Later known as sound-cards for PCs. The had also a project of an recording-card in stereo. please note: this was in early 80ies !
Perhaps you could provide us all with a photo of your disk?
The one I got are all blue and have a white text and the Apple-Logo
on the front side and some have text on the reverse side. They are
all 3,5" floppy-disks.
Some pictures here:

greetings Tom, from Bavaria
or, as the guy told me, they got those Lisas directly from Apple Inc.
