Original WW1 Souvenir 0.303 Bullet Pencil from YPRES

Description

Here on offer is an original WW1 souvenir 0.303 bullet pencil from YPRES, France. The 0.303 bullet pencil comprises of a short red pencil fixed inside a silver bullet, which tests as 925 grade silver, but may just be a thick silver plate? This fits VERY tightly into the neck of the brass (fired) cartridge case. You have to gently wiggle the bullet to get it free from the case. On the front is a small brass plaque depicting the arms of 'YPRES”, which retains good detail. The base of the fired cartridge case is inscribed 'C ' ' B', which I can't identify. There is a small dent on the case near the top and the pencil shows considerable use. With the pencil inserted, it measures 3.4” (8.6cm) long and weighs 16g. Please see my pictures for the details of the condition, which complement this description. Please see my TERMS OF BUSINESS regarding Deliver Charges and Insurance regarding additional insurance cover, should you require it, BEFORE the item is dispatched. The responsibility lies with the customer to check with your Customs restrictions that this item can be imported into your country.
