The Teller mine was a German-made explosive common in World War II. Equipped with a built-in carrying handle, the mine was a plate-shaped (Teller is the German word for plate) device used for anti-tank warfare. There were four models of Teller Mine made during WWII:
- Teller Mine 43 (Mushroom)
- Teller Mine 42
- Teller Mine 35
- Teller Mine 29
Approximately 3,622,900 of these mines were produced by Germany from 1943 to 1944. [1]
