My thought is that it's older. that's based on the assumption that a total cartridge wouldn't be left laying in a field, rather, it'd be the projectile that failed to function after impact or being fired. An AP or practice round that went skipping through mud with just the base burster charge could probably blow your hand off and not really do any damage to anyone else nearby. Those old AP rounds really had a limited amount of burster charge in them.
