Hi,

This type of blechdose was in use during ww2 for wehrmacht troops, as a breadkit. The one's of i know for sure they are original have two edge's. This one could be postwar eastern German. They are used there, these aluminium variant and later plastic with the inscription "Brotdose".
There are lots of different kinds of these "Brotdose".
