Australian J Mine

Hey Guys, I new to this and maybe I have even posted this in the wrong Place.
I'm based in New Zealand and yesterday bought an Australian J mine, Did the normal Google search but not much to be found.
Marked
Mines J
MK1
Aust
M.E.T
V
1943

The guts of it is the same as a mills bomb and the mine itself is twice the size of a mills bomb. It is in the post to me at the moment so can not give exact dimensions.

Your help is appreciated, cheers Nathan

Very nice looking and interesting bit of kit wouldn't mind one myself, I bet they are rare as hens teeth here.
 
Very nice clean looking fuse, strange how the filler screws are corroded on so many of these, Thanks for showing,,,,,, Dave
