This lot is being offered to me. But I am not even sure what everything is? I think the yellow grenade is a French, ww1? The german egg grenade in the middle WW1, the item next to it I'm unsure if it is a nose fuze with a pin or a greande? And the two large projectiles in the back with fuses on them, one is not complete as it looks form pics. Any help on ID and value of the lot would be great. He wants me to make an offer, but I don't know where to start as I'm not sure what everything is.Thanksfuze head.pnghead fuze.pngthe lot.pnguntitled.png

You have a WWI French OF1 grenade (yellow) A WWI German egg grenade (black) a WWI US Stokes Mortar Always fuze, (the steel dome shaped object). The two projectiles both look like fired WWI German 77mm shrapnel projectiles, one with the DoppZ96n/A fuze, (aluminum), the other I am not sure about as I cannot see it as clearly. A fair offer for the lot of 5 pieces would be 200.00 I would offer 150.00, you can always go up if he doesn't want to sell at that price. At the going prices in the US, at auction you might realize as much as 300.00, hard to tell as prices fluctuate. Prices in the UK don't seem as high right now as the US, but its always a crap shoot with ordnance. Hope this helps.....
