help to ident 3 x 7,7 cm

The two on the left would appear to be 77mm WWI projectiles with their double crimping grooves characteristic of German 77mm items, whereas the one on the right is a more modern 75mm or 76mm projectile with what appears to be German stencil.
 
I Agree with Hazard the first two are WW1 german the middle one being a shrapnel round with a dopp 96 fuze the first could be gas but don't quote me on it.
Regards
Andy

the fuze on the C-Geschoss (right) looks not like an original one and coloring has been done with much fantasy.

The projectile in the middle is a Feldschrapnell 96 n/A

Hi
Oups yes i've make a mistake on 2rd shell, it's first 7.7 cm Shapnell 96
I do not know why I wrote that!!
 
Center shell definate 77mm German WWI shrapnel with the dopp Z96 or 96n/A fuze. What a classic. The other two also appear to be German 77mm shells but elude me at the moment. Definately some fine shells and appreciate seeing them.....Dano
