A01821 - 12pdr Spherical Shell with Original Arsenal Paint Remnants

Item Number: A01821

Item Title: 12pdr Spherical Shell with Original Arsenal Paint Remnants

Price: $245

Shipping: Not included

Provenance: US/CS

Type: Spherical shell

Size: 12pdr

Sabot:

Fuse: Wood time fuse adapter (missing)

Book:

Location Recovered:

Description:
12pdr spherical shell in nice condition. This type took the wood fuse adapter and was used by both sides. It is not a polygonal cavity shell.

I considered running this one through electrolysis because it would clean up to be in mint condition. That would destroy the remnants of the original arsenal paint on it, however. They now appear to be orange, but originally were red that has oxidized to orange over the last 160 years.
