303 Bundles

I thought these bundles might be of interest. They are three early Australian CAC Mark II unheadstamped and a GB Mark II with a sketch of the hstp. As time goes on I'll add to the list, however, the headstamps will be drawn as I haven't come to grips with getting a nice scan of one.

Any interest in these?

Hi bud,
ime not a collector of such but wow, i am really impressed with all of these packets of rounds. I hope you cherish them as well as i do my Mills bombs. To do the same here in the UK would be very difficult. Well done, keep looking after them for posterity.

Hi to all,
Is there any way to tell if the early CAC are from Australia or New Zealand before the Australian rounds were marked with the month as well as the year date in 1906? (I think?)

Cheers

Certainly here in the UK it would be difficult to put together a collection of Australian and NZ packets like that, but not so hard to do the same with British packets.

I don't collect full packets myself, but I know a couple of ECRA members with excellent collections of full packets, including one of Rubin troop trial cartridges.
