Vickers .5 V690 and 40mm

[Rrickoshae]

I almost didn't bother to look at these, just another 2 Vickers 2pdr cases and a pair of .5 Brownings. But something nagged me to have a closer look - and I'm glad I did! They were Vickers 40mm cases (Export?) and a pair of Vickers .5 V690 cases - ball and incendiary. And all for the price of a bottle of spirits (including the pot and the vases)!

Very nice find Dave, still some unusual treasures out there to be found.

Very likely: a few countries used the 2pdr.

Cases are for Poland most likely.
