Hi Gspragge,Nice one,I bet that goes back a few years,is there any significance in the embossed letters in pic 2,what age would the box be,it looks like it was built to last,thanks for showing it,
Regards,Don,
 
The embossing says HiGH EXPLOSIVES DANGEROUS , CLASS ---------ll , BTC 14.

Looks like a reused box, the other side has something similar ground off and over painted green. Likely from the 1950s or 60s I think.
