French 37mm tracer?

[Bigboom]

Hi all,

Today I picked up what I think is a French 37mm projectile judging by what others have posted on this site. Looks like a Mle 1916 but I'm not sure if it is H.E. or A.P. or maybe a tracer? The threads are counter clockwise. Would this have been used for a tank or the field gun or both? Also anyone know what the numbers between the driving bands mean? Any help would be great!

Thanks for the pic! I measured the one I have and it is 80mm. I did some searches and found a website you might like it has a bunch of 37mm info with pics. So is this something their Navy would use to practice with to simulate the bigger guns?
