Easy. According to the Picatinny Arsenal dictionary on German Ordnance from 1958. Üb = Practice. T = Teller and Mi = Mine. The Tellermine 35 was a plate shaped mine for use against tanks and other vehicles. It was loaded with 11 pounds TNT and would detonate when rolled over with 200 pounds or more of pressure. NH

Check on the red lettering as well. Practice shells had white lettering. Not sure what the red means on mines. NH
