Hello,
Looks like a Czech base fuze like DVZ52 (different details).

Thanks , Minenaz . What type of shell & date would that be from ?

 

[Nabob]

any markings?

 

[siegfreid]

Only the ones you can faintly see in the pics. I can't really make them out . Thanks .

 

[Nabob]

can´t get around the central hole.
can you post a picture of the disassembled fuze?
Please look for markings leters A,B,C,...

I've cleaned it up a bit & here's a couple more pics that show the markings better . The stamps look like Japanese to me ? Thanks & hope this helps .

It could be the base fuse for a Japanese Type 95 75mm APHE.

I am more inclined to say that it is an assembly for booster and detonator (maybe detonator safety (the auxilary fuze for 75mm AA looks a bit similar)) used with non detonating fuze.

Thanks Bob . But is it Japanese ? Mike

looking at the symbols I would say it is,
I am sure there are better experts on japanese ammo here
