Description:6pdr solid shot that has not been mucked with at all. It came out of an old collection and has been out of the ground at least 40 years so it is not going to disintegrate on you now. It is a bit crusty as the old timers didn't run their cannon balls through electrolysis back in the day. Right as rain though.

I would be surprised if the Union had any 6pdrs on the field at Cold Harbor. By this late in the war, they were obsolete.
