I've had the following case a while and was trying to identify it and think it could be for a Belgian gun. Made by EOC 1909 marked 75MM T R large British EOC primer and 4 large crimps very near the top. Length is 242mm and rim dia. is 87mm. Am I right? 2pr
 
TR in French means Tir Rapide (Quick Fire) and the Belgium army (French speaking in that period) did have a 75 Krupp design gun around the beginning of the 1900's, but I only know the 75 mm TR since Model of 1934. Also, I have never seen EOC made ammo for Belgium. The case for this gun would be 75x277R90.
