I may have asked for this one before, I cannot find it if I did. The projectile measures 128mm in dia (5-inch). Only marking is stamped on the rotating band, WDC with another D in a crown, two anchors with 2 - 4 on either side of the shaft. Sorry if it's a repeat request.

Us navy 5in Mk15 could be a good candidate.

The drawing in the first picture does not match with the photo of the projectile. I think it's an error in the OP
