Thanks for the added pic. It is actually from 1953 (bxn / 53) and is a known headstamp.

CaribooBC, brass is the most common case material for Tokarev ammo, but you guys seem to have gotten a lot of Czech steel case surplus. If your case of Russian is from 1952 or later, it is most-likely copper or brass washed steel. If actually brass cased Russian, I would love to see a pic of the case and boxes.

I don't have any pics right now. The head stamp has a #3 at the 12 o'clock position, two stars at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions and #46 at the 6 position. The bullets are "staked" into the case with three indents.
