Actually as early as 1926 --



However, the shell in question has the non-corrosive primer which Peters called "Rustless" so it is 1931 or later. The 10-, 12-, 16- and 20-gauges got the folded "pie" crimp about 1947 except the 10-gauge shells with BB shot continued to be roll crimped for some time?!?
