Default Can You Identify This Tin?

This small tin was recently listed on ebay, but did not sell.

I have had a similar tin for many years, and never found out what it was.

Does anybody recognise it?

It looks like "CM 93" "BOX, SPARE SPRINGS, KEEP PINS, WASHERS AND INSULATORS No.1, MK.1" which was part of the 25pdr and 17pdr tool kit, carried with each gun .

Many thanks for that Rob.

I have had one of those tins since the 1970s, but this is the first time I have known exactly what it is!
