German or Polish bullet?

[conimus]

Hi,
Today I was searching in the woods in my hometown in Poland with my metal detector where I found 19 bullets on a spot that was 3m2 big. I would like to know if these bullets are Polish or German and from WW1 or WW2?

Thanks!

Looks Polish to me as it has the Polish eagle stamped on to it, 1933 dated.

Yep, Polish Mauser rifle rounds.

Cartridge made in 1933 by the Ammunition Factory in Skarżysko (Fabryka Amunicji w Skarżysku), shell case manufactured by the Norblin Factory (Spółka Akcyjna Fabryk Metalowych pod Firmą "Norblin" Bracia Buch i T. Werner), 67% of copper in brass, green circle around the primer indicates the heavy SC bullet for machine guns (Ckm Maxim wz 08, ckm Hotchkiss wz.25, ckm wz.30, km lotniczy Vickers wz.F, km lotniczy wz.37 "Szczeniak").

If it's MG, then why is it on stripper clips?

[Tomasz70]

Simple answer - that kind of ammo was specially devoted to mg's but could be used with other weapons as well. In case od shortage of ammo it was typical practice.
