WW1 German 88 ?

[Millsman]

Have literally just uncovered this in my garage! Looks to be about 88-90 mm diameter. Solid shot inner with cast iron outer body. Is this a WW1 German Naval gun shell i.e submarines? No markings.

Looks like a 25pdr, when i was working i found shot in similar condition with the outer metalwork breaking off,,
i only have one poor quality image of a 2pdr one we found that had the same sort of decay .
attached images of 25pdr for comparison and the 2pdr that i have highlighted the scabbing off

25 Pr is 88mm in diameter and that looks just like an AP shot.

Thanks very much guys. I'll see if I have a case for it to marry up to.
