Thought i would share this 1943 Dated 25pdr Smoke round
I know its not mint condition but it still retains lots of the original paint and markings. The fuze a No221 is original to this round and dated 1942 and still has much of its original coating .
Due to its condition i have decided NOT to do any restoration work on this and have only given it a light cleaning

Very nice Spotter, in great condition, dont see many with that much paint left on them.
Best regards Weasel
 
Very nice example, was this a recent recovery or a recovered piece years ago.
