Hello All,The German 37mm pom-pom shells of 1914/18 were production year datestamped in full,I believe,ie 1916 etc.
Of the two Karlsruhe examples that I have,one has VI and 98 either side of the primer and 20 at the bottom,the other has X and 98 with 36 at the bottom.
Is this production month in Roman numerals and year (1898)???and the number at the bottom,as you look at the stamp,some kind of lot number,or am I barking up the wrong tree altogether here???
