I picked this up today and have got as far as figuring out that it's a 47 x 131R for a Hotchkiss revolving cannon.........but is it French or British ?!!
I suspect it's French due to the anchors being identical to the one the French provided to the Japanese. I'm just not sure about the CF - What do people think ?? Is it 'Cartouche Francaise' or 'Cordite Full charge' ??
The ring around the primer could fit either, though the Brits used this style less than the French.
