But not the shell (perhaps english ?).

3 Pounder ?

The projectile looks very much like a 3 Pounder A.P. to me except the crimping groove is not evident ?
Has the crimping groove been filled Jordon ?
Also the rifling and band configuration is correct for a 3 Pounder.

Hi,

hello

the case is for a french ww2 tank Gun .

Yes.
Exactly, this isFrench 47x193R.
This ammunition was used in Tank gun 47mm SA Mle 1935 L/32 (AMC-35, Renault B1bis, Somua S-35)

Here;

So, unfortunately You need another AP projectile, cose this one are not for this case.
