Ex-Danish 1953 20 Pounder Case

One of my ordnance purchases at the War & Peace Show on Monday. Has some dents at the bottom of the neck and needs a clean, but I didn't think it was bad for £30. Apparently 'Til Undervisning' is Danish for 'For Teaching'. Looks like it may have had a projectile glued in the neck at some point.

Anyone got a 20 Pounder projectile for sale / trade? :)

Cheers,

2 As far can find out the tank was in service with the Danish Army in the 1950s/60s
