Description:This is a pretty decent 12-lber case shot ball. The iron is lightly peppered by ground action but solid and looks great. This cannon ball is a case shot as determined by the 11 LB 3 OZ weight. The fuse is not puffed up or anything but the top surface is corroded and no numbers can be seen. It displays decently. It looks to be punched at about 5 seconds. A good shell for the money.
Shell is inert, cleaned and coated.
