The body of the P.H.M.3 was made of aluminium, the body of the P.H.M.4 was made of cardboard.

Thanks waff. Indeed, finds are the best argument.

These magnetic anti-tank charges are quite rare, but the P.H.M.4 is extremely rare. But I haven't seen any repros in circulation yet.

The aluminum oxide is white, as the spots in the body
pict. So, I believe it's made in aluminium.
