This is the Target Practice version of the Belgian Cartridge 90mm CAN-90 or HE Model NR-477, NR-478(HEAT), NR-488(HEAT) & NR-501. It also resembles the WP Smoke NR-502 & 480.

Following quote from ORDATA for the CAN-90:

"This is a fixed, high-explosive, antitank cartridge which uses a point-initiating base detonating (PIBD) fuze. The casing is green with yellow markings. The material of the cartridge case is unknown. The projectile body is aluminum alloy."

Thanks nitro.

Is it worth something?

I don't know if it's worth anything. I'm an Ammo guy by trade so I see it as a potential item to add to our museum. There are guys here who know the value of all of this stuff.
