Hi all..
picked up these 2 today from a local antiques centre, I have no idea what they are, I’m usually into things a bit more modern! Cases cut down? Got to be
Seem to be about 37mm, bottom of cases marked GR in a monogram, S 968 on one S1070 on other, then 1916.
cases have fired primers.
Projectiles dated 1917 SW monogram and 67.
the top of the projectile seems to come apart into 2 pieces, the top had SW monograms on too.
each has 2 thin copper driving bands.
whatever they are, £9.50 the pair isn’t bad enough even if the cases are cut down.
they look nice on the shelf now I’ve got the rust off the projectiles.
