Hi nutmeg,

With this setup it's UC# 1.2.5 in the comprehensive U-Boat Classification table. It's Type 2.1 in the Steinhauer & Lück U-Boat Timeline.

I'm not sure why there are those horizontal striations on the reverse on either side of the hinge. Perhaps some closeups of the hinge will show if the solder has been disturbed.

Best regards,
