Description:Nice fuse that is "fused" in place (I have not tried to disassemble it).Nice examples of these are harder to find than the rarity 9 shells they went into. For one reason, the fuse was so expensive and unreliable that wood time fuse adapters were used in many of the shells instead.
Both sides used these fuses made in Great Britain. Overall very nice condition with one small dent in the dome that is shown in the second to last picture.
