Hello,

Is it a Danish fuze ? (pictures from Worthpoint)
The crown looks like a danish marking.

Cheers.

It does not look like anything documented on Denmark. The crown was used by some other countries too.
 
Hi,

it's a spanish "Espoleta de doble efecto "Krupp" de xx segundos".

xx = 17 or 22 or something else :)

Something like this one:

Hello Alpini,

Thanks for your answer. I know this fuze but I'm surprised by the "crown". I've never seen such a marking on spanish ordnance (except for this model). Maybe from the manufacturer.

Cheers

yes, I also haven't see this spanish crown, but the other stamps look typical. But spanish fuzes are not that common in my area :)
