Unknown maker/country for 100x182R115 M1928

Recently I found this 100x182R115 case marked model of 1928. It is the same as the 10 cm Skoda vz14/19. I do not recognize the country and I do not know the manufacturer "TV". A fellow BOCN collector showed me a Yugoslav case that looks the same, also made by TV, but the LOT designation is with a "C" (this case with "S") and the model is marked 100 MM X.M.28 (to my knowledge typical for Yugoslav cases, I have many examples in my collection) and this case is marked 100 MM HM28.

Anybody has additional information?

Hello,
Jugo used both cyrillic and latin script;
Lot: using cyrillic is "сериал" using latin is "serial" so is possible to find c or s for the lot number (observed also on 47mm mod 38 anti tank gun)
X before the M28 means "Хаубица" or howitzer.
will be nice to know the meaning of "H" in this specimen, but I think due to the latin used for the lot number is simply "Haubica" or howitzer using latin script
best regards

Fert, your explanation makes perfect sense to me. I also assume the H is for Haubice.
