SOLD 6lb Grenade Museum Quality with Powder and Fuse!

SKU/ID: FO-0117

Short Description

6lb Cannon Ball Grenade, Museum Quality # FO-0117
HMS Winchester sank 1695 (golden age of piracy)

A hollow 6lb ball, 3.3lbs, with gunpowder and fuse. Unthinkably rare and in remarkable condition. Powder is inert. These were lit and thrown at ships at close quarters as anti personal devices. There may be no other in the world in this condition, with intact powder and fuse!

This item has successfully completed reverse electrolysis and is very stable. The condition is amazing.
