WW 11 US grenade value

I agree with you Joe about the two different styles of front
clip, but the 'surplus' types you mention are generally
offshore repros/copies - not the real deal - although
with some paint they look great on display.........

I bought a US granade about 20 years ago in that little museum/shop in Bastogne for £15 and always assumed it was post-war. Thanks to this thread, I now know it isn't !

My 1950's type - note the way the lever
is mounted to lugs on the fuse:

Nice early MkII - Is there a filling plug in the base ?

The lever on the grenade above is the short
type used on MKII grenades of WWI after
the MKI twist lever was abandoned.........

Thanks for the info. Didn't know about the lever.

Don't think there is a filling plug. Florescent lighting at night does not produce the best quality pictures but here they are....

Do you think it is a pre WWII or WWI period?
