    I'm thinking it was used in this gun: 15cm schweres Feldhaubitze m/02

            a similar rim diameter had this cannon - 13cm Kanone 09 L/35 (160mm), but the height of the case was 705mm.

                German marking in the First World War did not specify the caliber of artillery ammunition.
                Only manufacturer's marks, production date and control marks.................
                The only clues are the dimensions of the cartridge cases = diameter of the bottom (rim), height and the caliber (diameter of the mouth).
