This mine, which should be called TM-ZB-44, is a small multi-purpose mine of German project, but probably built in Czechoslovakia towards the end of WW2: it contains about 1 kg of explosives (TNT, amatol, melinyte) and has two fize wells, one in the center of the floor and one on the edge, 90 to the right of the carrying handle.
Feature of these wells is that they can accommodate only fuses for AP mines (S.Mi.Z.35, Z.Z.35 or 42) or improvised mines (D.Z.35A or B).
