18-lbr. Shellcase Markings request - Arms and other weapons - The Great War (1914-1918) Forum

Hi folks, I've had an 18-pounder shellcase since I was a teenager in the early 70s, the slim fruit of a very long day spent at an auction where my father was hoping to get some antiques. Someone had cut it down to about 6 inches height and nickel-plated it, possibly to act as a fire-iron holder.
