Hi, this is my first post on these forums! For a little over a year now, I have been searching an ID on a projectile i bought at an antique store. i've posted on many other forums and no one can pinpoint what it really is.
its 37mm in diameter, 100mm long, weighs about 500g(about 1 pound) and the only marking on it is a very faint, red "56" on the bottom of it.
this is the original post on the IAA forums, where i got some help, but no positive ID: http://cartridgecollectors.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2396&highlight=
some of the guys said it was most likely pre-WWI...
if anyone can ID this, thank you sooo much!
