With the shape of the driving band and the case crimping groove I would have said it was a 2 Pounder 40 mm with a home made dummy nose piece !
Has it been accurately measured for calibre ?
 
Tmine35,It looks like a 2pdr.projo w/a brass dummy nose plug,its either a drill rd or a fake.Sincerely APDSAZ
 
I'm with Chris on this one, check the calibre and see if the nose unscrews.
 
Body diameter is 39,4mm and total length 199mm. The nose is made of brass. So, this seems to be a 2-pounder with fantasy nose?
