Unidentified Round

Kentish

New Member
New member here, basically, found this in the loft at my nans, she claims it was used as a doorstop for many years, but worryingly, doesn't know if it's been deactivated etc.

Anyone shed some light on it? Or if I should get the police to check it out?

There's a few markings, but hard to tell what all of them are. They are as follows:

Front:
R?????
P or D
299056orGL
BS
VAD 1945

Then about a quarter of the way round to the left, it has a circle, above the circle is an 8, inside the circle is either 177 or 77.

Pictures attached.

The shoe is size 9, just to give some idea of how big it is.
