    I walked into an Antique shop to look at a Kukri knife but...

    ended up coming out of the door with these items. I applied my general rules of engagement here when buying of if the item looks cheaply priced, interesting or rare to buy. I would appreciate some information on the shell case, please, which I assume to be from Continental Europe and of 75mm calibre. The number "1's" look to be in the Continental style as well as it being in a metric calibre. I looks to be dated 1910 but that's about all I can gather from it other than it doesn't look to be Britishicon. Thanks for any info.
