I hope this is the correct place for this post. I recently purchased at an antique store a supposed WWII mortar round. Story is that a local judge is a war collector and opening a war museum in Vincennes Indiana and had some overstock and consigned some for sale. Had a lot of helmets and daggers and bayonets also. The mortar is the typical torpedo shaped with the fins on the end. Appears to have been painted the olive drab green or possible came that way. There is no tip on it and appears to have a hard black porus material on the inside. I will post some pics later. I was wondering if someone could point me to a website to research it. I couldn't find any writing on it although it may be covered by the paint. I only gave 30 dollars for it so not really worried about the value as it was worth that for the uniqueness and fact it looks cool sitting on my cabinet in my gun room. I assume there is no laws regarding this since it is not live. Thanks for any info and again I will post some pics later.
