Hello,
Interesting to see a relic of German Doppz96 n/A found by Australian soldiers at Gallipoli.
I assume the fuze was used on 7.5cm shrapnel painted red (remnant of red paint on the ring).
Note the fuze is graduated to 48 (uncommon).
Regards

I suppose if it was found by Australian soldiers it would have been found in 1915 and would not have spent 105 years in the ground.
