This striking vintage inert artillery shell is a piece of military history, featuring a heavy brass casing and a distinct yellow-painted projectile. The base of the casing is clearly stamped with alphanumeric codes including "M.12.MTW.70.", "V.B.M.13.", "K.20.M.68.", and "K.22.M.69.", indicating its historical context, likely from the late 1960s. The word "ONSCHADELIJK" is also visible on the casing, confirming its inert and harmless status. The projectile's tip is finished in silver-coloured metal, completing its authentic look. The item is in good vintage condition, exhibiting a natural patina on the brass and some minor scuffs and marks on the yellow paintwork consistent with its age and former life. This unique item serves as a robust decorative piece, ideal for a study, library, or a 'man cave'.
