I think it is factory made. I have a similar one in my collection. Because of it’s painting, case lengte and headstamp, I think mine was made for the Dutch army, but I have No documentation on this cartridge. Because it is lightweight I don’t know whether it is a drill round or a display round.
Well, seems the plot thickens... The rim diameter is 65mm. And this is a picture of te markings, freshly washed.

Hello,
This APHE shell is similar to Italian 47mm APBC 47/32 m39 (the cap is missing).
Yellow paint is not italian and markings are similar to romanian markings (Nr 7...).
As Romanian used Breda and Bohler 47mm guns, could it be a romanian shell ?
Regards
