Russian shrapnel (WW1 U.S.,I don't believe we ever made thes ein Canada) came with the correct case which was unmarked.

XK 28305
C
40MM ll-T
BS
MH/O or C ? not clear

I did a light cleaning and removed surface rust on some of the surfaces and re-shellaced the areas where it
was, outside body and exposed body edges from the cut.
I adde new images which I hope are better than the first ones.
