Hello,

Minenaz16 is right (How is normal!!!).
The fuze is the "Moreno Luque" model 1935, used in Skoda 76,5/40 AA gun, model 1919. Juan Moreno Luque was coronel of Artillery , Prize "Daoiz" of 1929 to 1933, that is one of the most important prizes of the Spanish Army, awarded to the military man who has most stood out in the field of Artillery.
In the image, shell of 76,5mm with espoleta Moreno Luque modelo 1935.
