I have these to trade, they range from dead common, to scarce, to rare. I haven't cleaned them. Am interested in other 37mm kinds etc.
In particular a Russian Solid shot without the upper band.
The Common 1 pr was made up until 1910 for the U.S. Navy, when it was designated a Target projectile. Made "commercially" by various companies at various times.
The Driggs projectile type lasted into ww1 when they were made by PE&M in 1916 & 17.
The Flat tipped type seems to have appeared in 1897 as a "commercial" style with out the crimp groove and if it had the tip
would be 1/4" over all longer then the other types, This is the kind made in 1898, they became extinct thereafter.
