Hello
I found this bottle in Kurland, Latvia.
As far as this is rare? Can somebody interested? I read that these were made in the besieged Leningrad.
Thanks for any answer!

Hm, very interesting.
I haven`t ever heared about PMD-6f around Leningrad and that this mine besieged in Leningrad.
PMD-6F was produseing only on Soust of USSR - Roston-na-Donu and Krasnodar. This region.
But of cource, PMD-6F could be and in other regions. For example - PMK-40 was produceing ONLY in Leningrad, but this mine was very popular in Ukranian partizans But in the same moment, PMK-40 you can fined just around Leningrad and in that area where fighted all Leningrad fronts.
And mine not rare. Of cource. for Latvia definetely rare :tinysmile_fatgrin_t

Thanks for the quick reply.
About Leningrad I read in Wikipedia. I wondered if it was used there and there and made. Because there was a shortage of TNT

Ahahahaha like and in any other situation English speaking Wiki knows much more as any other specialist from ex-USSR. Really cool.
But just one problem - 99.9% mines PMD-6F in Internet you can see just from South of Russia. Not Ukraine, Crimea and not Lenngrad. But you mine probably first from Latvia

By the way, you can see on Wiki information about PMD-6 during Witner war. It`s definetely fake! About it you can read in my last topic here on BOCN.

Some years ago I bought a bunch of these bottles from a digger who told that he had found them at Leningrad area.
