Identify this Brass Casing
Found along the shore in a part of the UK that was German occupied during WWII
Anyone have an idea what it's from? The left end is lined up with 0". Tried to get straight-on for the length. |

It's a Nazi condom. They were serious about birth control.

Are you positive that it is brass? Looks pretty rough to be made of brass.

I think it might be steel or other metal type casing...I've pulled 150 yr. old brass out of the ground and it doesn't corrode. It has the green patina like this, but not the corrosion.
