20x105/B nationality?

Hello,

At the last ECRA meeting I bought a brass 20x105/B.
The casehead seems very worn, and apart for a "D", shows no other signs of a headstamp.
The primer is of the Berdan type, and its setting/fixing is slightly offset (as is often observed on Hungarian brass 20x105/B).
The neck has three stab crimps.

Can anyone shed any light on the origins / nationality of this casing?

T.i.a.

Menno.
