[Edpin]

Hello Guys,

Do you have any idea about this one?

Dimension is pretty much the same as the German standard issue mess kit.
The only marking on the bottom, stamped ‘Aluminium pur’ and ‘MENESA’ below it.

The only thread I could find about Menesa is here:

Thanks for the reply daco.

Unfortunately, the seller also have no idea about the origin of this item, which makes it difficult to identify
