Very heavy. Partly made of brass. Found in England

Clearly a 15th century pressure release valve. :detecting:
 
Looks like the detonator/fuze for an artillery round or possibly nose piece from German Bomb. Military ordinance is my guess.

well done, Bill!!

It is a nose from a German bomb.

I think the numbers were used in its detonation.

In England we have a problem finding alot of shrapnel but finding one of these makes it worthwhile
 
Looks like the top end of a anti personnel mine
 
Thought I would update you with this info.As you can see, the British shell (not bomb) cleaned up nicely and this is the info I received (just shows you what I knew!):
