Nice round Waff, you may be lucky and find it has the base fuze/tracer element when you pull the head. Fingers crossed although they are out there to buy just a little expensive.
Good find though. Weasel
 
The reason I ask is I am a bit worried you might have a 3,7cm Flak AP projectile in a Pak case.

Easy to tell by the area below the drive band and the drive band looks like the Flak one.
 
I hate being the bearer of bad news but I haven't ever seen a Pak AP with the narrow drive band.

To be 100% you need to see the crimped part.
 
Righto Stiel,is no probs.I know the seller and will be able to get a refund or get it corrected.
i will get Mick to make a puller at work.

cheers

Excellent picture Andy.
I was hoping someone would have a good comparison picture.

Btw Waff I have been told by a german friend that the 6331(star) headstamp was made for the export market. The 3,7cm PAK Sprenggranatpatrone made for the Greeks.

So a very nice case to add to your collection.
