    Looks like a german 3.7cm PAK round. You can do a bit of easy research on the web.

    Here is a good site to start.

    It's not a German Pak...the band is wrong. It is a US 37mm solid shot AP projectile that never held any explosive charge at all. It has a small tracer cavity in the base. The Explosive projectile is a totally different shape and length.
