    Hi Baldari.
    They look like they are all 2nd world war No36m Mk1 grenades. check the dates on the base plugs.
    cheers, paul.

    Is it just me seeing things, or, in the second picture, middle row, do 2 of them have rather curious looking base plugs? They look almost like they're tapered?
