Unknown baton round case

This case is unmarked. It has a stepped case wall and appears to take a shotshell type primer cup.
the head is bare metal but the case wall is finished in a gloss black, possibly a polyester finish (not paint or anodised)
It came with the PVC plug type baton, that may or may not be original.
Does anyone know what it is?

baton rounds etc 008.jpgThe closest I have got to this is the commercial baton case in the middle of this pic, from PWD. It's an old pic, it's fired and doesn't have a projectile. Hope this helps.
 
Thank you. I guess it could be an unused PWD case in the condition it would be in before markings were applied.
 
I think you'll find this is reject unfinished case,there were a few around on the market a while ago,the projectile isn't for this case...did you 'pick this up' at Farnham the other Sunday?
