My small collection of 47mm Hotchkiss rounds

[Weasel]

I have been sorting stuff out recently and found these three 47mm rounds and thought it would be a good idea to put them together and share them on here, there are two large banded one in copper and one in brass and one with a more conventional copper driving band,there is a Japanese stamp on the band, this one also has an inert Hotchkiss base fuze to go with it. not sure if this is the correct type so would appriciate some more info if any can help out, the photo showing the head stamp is of the same round with the base fuze present.

i cant answer your question weasel but i do have another one related to your collection,, I have seen many photos of these 47mm with deep driving bands as in the two shown in your first picture. But never seen a fired example and wondered if anyone had one they could show..
