    This is a French nose section of projectile with percussion fuse 24/31 MLE 1899 for high explosive  large caliber shell. The nose section of the projectile has ripped off when the shell was fired it does have some damage from that some dents and impact marks and has ripped clean of the shell during the impact. The projectile head with steel outer rim and brass centre fuse  is in very nice condition with no original maker markings or numbers that can be seen the metal outer case and centre fuse remains have been very well cleaned they retain a lot of original colour it is perfect for display or any collection. The fuse with nose section was recovered from a field near Trun, which we think was a pit dug by the allies where lots of German equipment was thrown in and buried after the battle in the Falaise Pocket, Normandy in France 1944. A nice rare relic from the famous Normandy battlefield
