Civil War-Era Cannonball Fragments, 36.2 lbs.
Description
Civil War-era cannonball fragments, weighing a total of 36.2 lbs. The fragments exhibit evidence of iron construction with a naturally aged patina, consistent with historical ordnance from the mid-19th century. The shapes and sizes of the fragments vary, likely resulting from explosive impacts. These relics may hold historical and archaeological significance, offering insight into period artillery and battlefield remnants.
CONDITION: The cannonball fragments display extensive surface oxidation and rust, typical of aged iron exposed over time. Edges and surfaces are weathered, with pitting and irregular textures throughout. No significant structural cracks or repairs are observable. Condition is stable but reflects the expected deterioration from burial or prolonged exposure to elements.
