I found this shell in the garbage today. It's marked:
105MM M14. It has an army ordnance cartouche. Lot 15599. 27. 1942

The trench art isn't anything out of this world, but I like how modest it is. The star burst design is very pleasing to me. If this art is vintage... I can easily imagine a bored soldier sitting there by his gun and etching this design into a spent shell.







Can anyone tell me anything additional about this shell? Can anyone tell me how much it might be worth?

Thanks for looking!
