I believe these two may be more easy to recognise. I believe they are French, possibly Schneider export. Again any help on nailing the country, and shell case that would complete it would be appreciated.
yes, these are very typical Schneider export shells. But I think it's difficult to guess about the country. Norway would be possible again, they had a Schneider Field Gun M.1900 (and Erhardt M.1901 -> your other projectile)
The case on the picture looks shorter than the usual French 75x350R.
I think so.
Maybe these fuzes are exactly same as fuzes shown on diagram.
I saw similar fuzes. The right fuze could be marked E.S.C.98S (percussion mod 98) and the right E.S.C.98C (12me + date) (T and P mod 98) by Schneider.
I found this picture of a 75mm Schneider mountain gun with what looks like the obus ordinaire in this thread. It could be this case that I am looking for!
I assume the final "S" on markings ESC98S is for "Siège"
and "C" of ESC98C is for "Campagne" (Field)
Similar fuzes but used with different shells and guns.
