Maxim MG Belt Segment, ID Help

[ww1czechlegion]

Hi,

Picked this one up at a gun show a few weeks ago. Looks like it is for a Maxim type MG. Not sure if it is German or not. It has 21-spent shell casings that are probably not German. The section length is approximately 3-feet long, more or less. It has spacing for 37-rounds in this segment.

There is an ink-stamped or stenciled "100" in a couple of locations on the belt.

Any ID help and a reasonable value would be appreciated, as I haven't a clue what these go for nowadays.

All the Best,

Alan

Looks like part of a correct three pocket late '17 German belt the rounds aren't for the German 08 though they fired rimless.

Alan,

I've had a few of these belt fragments over the years. They fit more into the souvenir category and thus obviously don't have desirability of a full belt. I think if you could stick a few German rounds in it, the value would be enhanced.

Best regards,
Chip
