This item is for sale in North America. It is not inexpensive. The back end does not look right compared to the US manual on German explosive ordnance in the download section. It should have shear screws. I was interested in your opinions on it.

This bomb is a Brand C50B. Badly, I have no doc about the marking. The marking of your bomb is very similar on this of BrandC50A.
Drawing come from book "German air dropped weapons to 1945" of Wolfgang Fleischer
