amp;nbsp; You are bidding on a VERY NICE example of a WW2 German Wehrmacht Steel Armor Piercing Round!  100% INERT, this was used by Germany's famous 7.5cm KwK37/L24.  Used in the StuG III, StuG IV, Panzer III, Panzer IV, Sd.Kfz. 234/3 and Sd.Kfz. 251/9!  The 7.5 cm KwK 37 L/24 (7.5 cm Kampfwagenkanone 37 L/24) was a short-barreled, howitzer-like German 75 mm tank gun used during World War II, primarily as the main armament of the early Panzer IV tank. Slightly modified as StuK 37, it was also mounted in early StuG III assault guns. It was designed as a close-support infantry gun firing a high-explosive shell (hence the relatively short barrel) but was also effective against the tanks it faced early in the war. From March 1942, new variants of the Panzer IV and StuG III had a derivative of the 7.5 cm PaK 40 anti-tank gun, the longer-barreled 7.5 cm KwK 40.[1] When older Panzer IVs were up-gunned, their former KwK 37 guns were reused to arm later Panzer III tanks and other infantry support vehicles. In 1943, depleted stocks and demand for the Panzer III Ausf. N required restarting production of a slightly revised 7.5 cm K 51 L/24 (7.5 cm Kanone 51 L/24).   Made of aluminum and steel, this is a FANTASTIC piece of history!  Recovered from the Russian Front, there is some obvious wear, damage, and corrosion, however it remains VERY SOLID!   Measuring approx. 20.5 tall, and 3 in diameter, some markings are still present, with a production date of 1939.  Some pitting throughout, but it could be clean-up/restored if one wished.  Cool feature is that is retains the earlier copper driving band.  One of the RAREST rounds to obtain, it would make a PERFECT addition to any collection or display!  Please email me if you need additional photos or information.
