While out exploring a site that has seen some CW activity, I came across this chunk of what I believe is a piece of an exploded cannonball. It appears it may be a bormann fused cannonball--size--maybe 12 lb????? I haven't been able to find thread measurements for cannonballs on any website for the 2 threaded holes, to help confirm my suspicions. I would appreciate it if anybody can help identify my find.
Previously, I recovered a canister shot on the same property that measured about 2 inches in diameter, as well as several other items. Also in the picture--several strands of chain--appears to be hand forged and a partially flatened lead shot.
