This box is exciting only if you have four Tellermines and need a way to store or display them. If you are this person then you need to ask yourself why you have four German anti-tank mines and do the RCMP ever slow down as they pass your house. Obviously I am such a person. Below is the case and the 4 AT mines included in the sickness that is my collection. There is a Tellermine 35, Tellermine 35(S), Tellermine 42 and Tellermine 43 sitting in this case.

This is the later ST model of the Tellermine 35. It is designed for anti vehicle use and requires 400 pounds pressure on the center plate. The grooves were intended to reduce the exposure of the mine in the case of loose soil or sand.

This landmine is the first issue of the T-35 anti tank landmine. Pressure of 400 pounds to the center or 200 pounds to the edge of the top plate was sufficient for it to discharge.

Here’s a scubber! It’s a ground dug German Ti-35 St Tellermine anti-tank mine. As you can see it’s in very rough condition. It’s complete except for the carrying handle although the metal is pretty marginal in places. I am not sure about how to stabilise this guy so I’ll be asking on the forums.

This is a Tellermine 43 antitank blast mine. It uses a T.Mi.Z.42 fuze. This is missing because James is a slack bastard and hasn’t sent me any yet.

This is a Tellermine 42 antitank blast mine. It uses a ZZ42 zünder. My friend James says this is wrong and that it should instead have a T.Mi.Z.42 fuze. I think James needs a hobby that doesn’t include sending me email.
