          Didn't know it would matter. I don't know this type of ordnance at all. I thought the markings alone would tell the story. I will post up a couple more shots. These have been made into shot glasses.

                These used to be 20x138 B shellcases, shot by 2 cm Flak 30 and 38.

                P490 is the factorycode
                38= 1938
                9= LOT number
                K= amount produced: 11.000

                    Thank you Zunder and Jiipee76. I know nothing about these types of things, but thought it looked German! Definately a neat type of trench art!
