johnreed Posted 9 November , 2010 Share Posted 9 November , 2010 It looks like a No 80 Fuze, could be from an 18 Pr Shrapnel Round. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18th Battalion Posted 9 November , 2010 Share Posted 9 November , 2010 It does appear to be a No.80 fuze, they are usually stamped on the underside; I have one with: 80 VII, (No.80 mk7) and 9/18, 1560 (date and lot No.) Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
