Sea mines
Re: Sea mines
Confirmation: The first photograph from the Motala Museum is indeed a mine produced for Finland and the second a project of naval mine for...China!
Swedish Sea Mines produced / in use during this period were notably different

Re: Sea mines
Due to the construction of the mine anchor this does not appear to be Russian, but the very common British Mark III or one of its export versions. This would make it more likely one of the smaller Black Sea navies or WW I leftovers.

German EMC in my opinion (not british for sure).Sturm78 wrote:Any idea ? Soviet ?
Re: Sea mines
Well, the mines in my photo have a perfectly spherical shape while the British Mk.III is more elongated...
Perhaps EMC German mines, as Natter say. Can somebody translate the text of the image ?

Re: Sea mines
He is correct, I was in error. They are EMC mines. I must have taken too many pain pills prior to the post. The earlier Mk I and II british mines are spherical in shape. I meant the picture to show the differences between Russian and other mine Anchors. My error.
