My ashtray ;-))

[Ostmark]

... and what was it used for in the war ..?

[Ostmark]

This "rocket" was used as flowerpot by the grandfather of my friend.
After the grandfather died my friend gave it to me ... actually he had 3 of them ...

This are the only markings i can find ...

Last one ... its quite comfortable as ashtray

It is part of a 3,7cm Stielgranate 42 (t).
The rod in the middle of the tail (part that went down the barrel) looks like it is missing and odviously the cap is missing.

Is was used as an anti-tank projectile for the 3,7cm Pak 37 (t).
Looks very nice.
