Interesting. Do you know if there is any difference between this and the common shell from the 47mm Hotchkiss-Škoda Marinekanone L44 used by Austria-Hungary? I know for sure that the KuK shell was different from the French and British shells and from the images I have they seem very similar to the Italian one you just posted, but I've been unable to find any solid documentation about it.

somigliano ma come vedi cambia il tipo di avvitatura e fuze! però il 47 francese e stato adottato da molti stati e poi modificati
