WTK: What Type of Inert Landmine is this??
Does anyone know what type of Landmine this is. I would also like to know it's value. I believe a pressure plate would attach to the threaded plug on the top of the mine. The mine is 10" in dia.
I picked this up, along with several Mausers & 1907 SMLE Bayonet, at an Estate Auction of a Major Colt and Military Arms Collector in Chester Co. PA.
Your advice and suggestions will greatly be appreciated!

It's a VS-2.2 mine "Italian" and yes it's missing the pressure plate.

Destroyed tons of these in Iraq, this black one looks like a training aid dummy as I've only seen them in desert sand colour but know they also came in Green.
