While cleaning out a shed I stumbled upon an old brass shell. After cleaning it up I found it was inscribed with "aandenken uit somercem (somergem?) 1918 with what I have assumed is the Dutch lion and "Anna" along the underneath

 

The bottom of the shell is marked 

AFM 

Lot

4

1916

 

The fuse has 16-15 

 

Any information on this shell would be great. Gun type ext..

 

Thank you

Probably Belgian. Either 105 or 150mm. Can you measure across the opening?
