Hi Gang

I have just bought a collection of shells.

I am really a digger and have very little knowledge on this stuff.

I am looking for some info on this shell to advertise it for sale on our web site.

I don't want a full 10 page data report, just the sort of info needed to tell the customers what it is all about.

Secondly what sort of realistic price should I put on it.

More pictures of this shell on our web site www.dugup.co.uk
 
4.5 info

Me thinks the shell is 4.5in How whilst the case is 4.5in Naval gun, had a look on your site but cant get the pictures up any larger suspect someones put them together to look good a bit like the 4.7 which did appear as a fixed round but is rare and the case is a bit like a 4.5in naval in size. 4.5 in how is seperate loaded and shell shoul have markings on base. Whats on the bottom of the case?
