Help With Large Unknown Shell

Member
I have recently purchased what I believe is some kind of practice shell. The projectile is threaded on to the shell body itself. There are no markings on it anywhere. It weighs 12.2 lbs.

The measurements are:

23.5 in/ 56.69cm height
3-1/4/ 8.255 across base
8-3/4in/ 22.225cm around.

I was hoping someone can help me figure out what it is and era it is from. The forum has always came through so far. Thank you in advance!
