the inscription of the lid maked it a shooting prize...I can make out ...besten Sch�tzen...meaning to the best shot.
the picture depicts a german and austrian soldier showing soldarity with the german and austrian eagles in the back. Made somewhere before or during WWI.
Prosit,
your SteinMeister Roland.
