Does anybody know anything about this 20 mm Flak case base stamp? It has a simple fragmentation projectile without tracer or any special feature. The fuze AZ 5045. It is made from brass. The following stamp was it on: S 5/37.

Hello,

what I can say that this cartridge has been manufactured at POLTE Magdeburg in 1937. As I think it is from a lot manufactured for a foreign army. I know that stamps similar to this one are existing for Switzerland, Hungary, Italy. But this one may be for another country. I think someone here will know. regards
