Mills Bomb

Hi Guys

I have owned this mills bomb for at least 40 years. I intend putting it on e-stand but before I do would like any information on the markings.
I would also like to know what sort of price to ask for it. As you can see the spring, pin and ring are missing and a slot has been cut in the top of the body to convert it to a bank for the old silver threepennies ( I know my spelling is probably way off) .
Many thanks in advance

Les

Hi Les, posting here or the Firearms forum would be perfectly correct

The collectors value has really been hurt by the cut to the grenade body Good examples with all the parts, paint, etc fetch £50. I think you would be lucky to get half that now?

Lots of info can be found here:
