I have been asked by a friend if anyone can help with the headstamp of this round.

12 O'clock = Pf
3 O'clock = M
6 O'clock = 359d
9 O'clock = P

if you could tell me what each mean that would be great thanks.......paul

P = Polte
M = Magdeburg
Pf = Pforschung (research)
3519d = Experimental code number - the "d" being the 4th variant.

Developed in the mid 1920's as an incendiary for the TuF-MG and known as the TR-Patrone (Tank-Rauch or tank-smoke)
