GERMAN WW1 M1913 and M1915 Discus grenades

The German WW1 discus grenade is one of my favorite pieces. I would really like to see collectors favorites of this piece in their collection, hence I started this German WW1 discus grenade thread. Again would really love to see the diversity of German WW1 discus grenades in BOCN members collections...........Dano

The German 1913/1915 disk grenades are hard to find in good condition. I had one but it was corroded very badly.
 
Thanks, and I know what you mean, the M1915 discus in last post was found on bottom of a lake

image.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgI like this grenade so much, I posted it twice!
Thought about getting some repro caps back when I got this (thanks Marcus/Mike) but glad I didn't as brass is all I've seen @ it just don't look right. Ingenious design! A mint Mini is on my bucket list . Good thread Dano.
