Joe,

I've been offline for a while but I think your mag is a combination of an older tube with a replacement base. I don't think the Hn. abbreviation was used much later than April 1922 when the Ministry of Interior issued marking instructions and specified the abbreviation as H. Is there any evidence that the base has been replaced?
