A new 1st (old) shotgun headstamp for me

[2moshers]

While not the most exciting of finds it is still a 1st for me. While metal detecting along one of our old streets here in town which is being redone (the curbs are 19th century) I found several 20th century coins and this ELEY BROS NO 12 LONDON shotgun shell head. While having found many shotgun shell heads dating back to the 19th century this was a first for me with this particular head stamp. From what I can determine it is probably late 19th century. Thanks for looking.
