French 75mm shell?

[Tin Lids]

Hi guys,

I've been offered a shell and projectile. The casing looks French to me, but the fuze doesn't look French to me. Is this a German fuze and projectile mated with a French casing?

Also, the primer in the base, does that look fired? I'm sure it's inert but just in case.. ;-)

Cheers guys,

Lenny
