Thank you very much for the info. Nice pictures.
Only the one found in the Netherlands has two steel (Fes) rotating bands and that one in France only one.
The projectile are also not in the German manual H. Dv 481-128 - Merkblatt Mun f. 4,7 cm pak 36 (t) from 30-06-1942. So the production has to be from a later date.

2 bands for shells we found. On pictures the lower band is inserted in the case.
