Boy, that is really encrusted. E.K. is Eastman Kodak. The round is a standard U.S. Navy 20mm cannon round, not Japanese.
Since you don't know what kind of projectile it has, I would strongly recommend you contact the police or the military for safe disposal. It may be badly encrusted but that does not mean there is not a live explosive shell under that crud. (I am not talking about the propellant charge, but about an explosive projectile, which could be a lot more dangerous and could go off if the round is dropped.)
If the projectile is explosive, it is illegal to own under federal law, one more reason for turning it in.

P.S. Please don't just toss it or put it in the trash for someone else to find and maybe be injured.
