Unknown 17LB

[jvollenberg]

Here is a 17LB round. It has the British broad arrow on it. From the markings look like MK TX T3 ...

I am not sure who's item it is, or what the nomenclature is. Also the Markings on the cartridge case are Canadian. So maybe this is a Canadian round? However, once again we are dealing with the museum.

Diameter: 76MM
Length of the Projectile: 315MM
Length of the cartridge case: 585MM

Thanks guys ...

That's why I am posting these. Not only to see if I can get some of them identified correctly, but so people can see the items and have the images available for use.
