WW2 British Training German Teller Mine

BMG50

Recently came across a British/ Canadian training teller mine for training troops how to deal with such mines. The mines has a removable replica fuze that has all the details of the original, made in Mazak and painted brown with the white and red markings. There are fuze pockets in the correct places that vent out the top (see the 3 holes) I assume the igniters that made a bang or emitted smoke if not properly dealt with under instruction. The body is cast in a concrete that is similar to dark grey building blocks, exactly similar material to the British training S-mine, the body is painted a light grey. Quite a rare item, never seen one until now.
