The 47mm Bohlers came in various case lengths. I know of 195, 227 and 235mm, but there could have been others.
Is the star what makes it Austrian? And what company is it associated with?

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannone_da_47/32 for more details of the gun and its use.
Hello,
I think the case it's cutted. But markings are interesting. Never seen before 47 p.d. (or p.a.) Cases made for Austrian, or Dutch have different markings. Also the star it isn't observed on these cases.
ENZ is the austrian Enzesfeld factory at Wien

What does the star signify then? I'm guessing acceptance mark?

I have the same case, length should be 227 mm like the normal Dutch PAG case. This is only the second I have seen. The marking 4.7 p.a. I found back as KNIL naming of the 4,7 cm "pantser afweer". Very rare case, too bad it seems to be cut.
