Moored Mine;

Sir,
Close up view of the mooring base plate and top cover plate would help. Both British and Germany used similar base plates.
Regards,
John

Nice collection piece. Have been looking for a WW1 seamine myself for many years but without success. The ones that still turn up are blown to pieces by the EOD :tinysmile_hmm_t2:

Thank you very much taucher and sorry for my late reply
It is great to have this with the sea mine. I didn't realize that it didn't have any copper wire from the case. I do not see the ww1 sea mine here on this island
Thank again for all the help
