Just got hold of a pair of these ,this one (the worst of the pair )is going to be sectioned , the other will be cleaned up and a few holes filled .It may take a week or two !
Does anyone have an image of the original markings found on these mines the only example ive found is the attached line drawing, and i dont know if its right or wrong ,i was expecting to see russian (cyrilic ?) style writing
Looks correct. Could be and so long marking, because standard: plant-party-year appeared not in the same time when started to produce any munition and mines also.
Style of letters can be different. I sow original marking on mine PMZ-40, what looks like from old book about legends of Robin Hood
