60-65mm?

I couldn't positive ID this shell. Body diameter that i have measured is 64mm so a assume 65mm (minus 1mm due to corrosion) , but I have identified fuse as French Percussion fuse 24/31 Mle99 or Mle99-08.

I wish you guys would quit watermarking things when you are asking for an ID, it makes it a real pain in the ass to see details. Try Italian, they had a 65mm that was used before and into WWII, I don't have any pubs here at the moment, but I know there were a number of loadings, including chemical. From memory yours looks a little similar, though I'm not sure on the fuze.
