This is a dutch Mine and DNG is Genschow, Gustav DNAG Werk Durlach.

So German then … interesting. I was thinking Austrian for some reason.
That's an old German company as well. Looks like a lot of small arms.

Genschow is still active and belongs to the Dynamit Nobel Group......but....I think that you are not totally wrong about Austria.......DNG Dynamit Nobel Graz manufactures claymore-type mines and also supplies the netherlands.

NR 270 is the shock tube spool, the landmine is the "Scherflading Horizontaal Effect NR 269"

But with the Swiss mechanical igniter ?

Austrian with a Swiss igniter, used by the Netherlands. I love the new world.
I bet the shock-tube is made by Germany, and the spool by France. Just a joke, but not really. It makes tracking who makes what really difficult sometimes.
