The case is Hotchkiss French). The projectile I am not sure about, but I think it is not original to the case. Will check some more to see if I can ID it.

With highlandotter on the case (I do not think the Belgians made 37mm QF rounds?).
Surprised theres no markings on the projectile (have you checked the drive band?).
Very nice item -even if projectile is wrong!

thanks for help.
I once saw the same case and that was a belgian,this one was signed "EP".
it was therefore that I doubted.
the projectile has no marks,hope to know also what it is.

The case is a standard Hotchkiss though of late manufacture, the projectile is odd, has the British 1 pr type of band with a slight difference and it is a solid shot which is unusual, maybe a proof shot ? They don't belong together but I can't say what the Shot goes with - a few countries could be to blame for it but with no marks it's a tough call.
The case would take any standard common French Hotchkiss projectile.
