m1917 German egg grenade crate

Here is a pic of a crate that unfortunately I no longer have. It held 50 egg grenades, 49 live and 1 practice, so at least on the egg grenade the practice unit is about 50 times rarer than the live model. I had to sell this and a good chunk of my collection off to meet real estate taxes which inadvertly doubled! Rats Dano

A real tragedy when you have to sell something like this for pay government, those fuc... bstrds and their taxes.... Yes, the red practice one is very, very rare.
