Number 1 is a No 80 fuze (British)
Number 2 is a No 85 fuze (American made for 18 pdr)

Are they for sale/swap?

Cheers,
Andy
 
Nope,I need an old looking one complete with bottom ring to put in my 18 pdr fuze setting trainer!
 
:) nice now that makes a change from the usual shrapnel rounds people have
 
Sorry chaps,

these 2 are destined for Germany.

Yes Andy,a little more care is needed on your fuze post-mortems next time!:p

These 2 came from my pal Frank who does have a box of them at his house in similar to relic condition?
I can get some more photo`s next week if you want?
they are all ground dug from Verdun area.

cheers and thanks for the info
