£3 at Ashurst fair, told its US which seems right. No headstamp, green primer annulus. Any info on maker and other carts etc? Cheers Tig:smile:
 
It is made in the Netherlands, J.N. Schuurman (JNS Pyrotechniek B.V.), Leeuwarden Netherlands
 
The aluminium cartridges in the link in the front row are mainly rimless and WWII production.
There are rimmed aluminium cartridges behind but manufacturing dates are not visible.
The case from the Netherlands is modern, as is the British Schermuly produced case below, which also has the green waterproofing varnish over the primer.
