These came with a 1909 7.7 case. An odd and very heavy object ? I don't
know if it's ordnance related at all, 2 1/2" Ht - 1 5/8"at widest? A fired 37mm AP, and a crimped point for a large
AP shot, 3 3/4" maybe 90mm. Has markings, I suppose useful to restore a shot
missing such.

The left one is most probabbly the piercing cap of a 105 or 120mm APDS peojectile. , The middle one is a fired US 37mm shell without ballistic cap.

Agreed, if anyone can use these to complete something let me know. The 37mm isn't
worth the postage how ever in my opinion.
