ciao
may be I'm wrong, but markings, especially SC with triangle make me think on french headstamp.
kind regards
 
Good morning,
I have perhaps a solution to the identification of your unknown case.
a 37 m/m Schneider-Canet de 30 calibres Tir Rapide exist among the Schneider and Co production.

CL is 132.5 mm
rim diam :45 mm
rim thickness :2.5 mm
case head diam:40 mm
Is that yours ?

Due to the type of hstp , SC means Schneider Canet.
The gun was adopted by the Turkish army circa 1903.
So it is a military case
H.A.N.D

This is it exactly

Do you know what the projectile is like ? are these scarce, this one is entirely new to me. I have no information at all on Schneider 37mm.
