30 lb parrott shell after electrolysis.
 
Great pics!! Curious to know if the shell was ever armed, or if the fuse blew out, or if it was a dud and the fuse removed for disarming and cleaning?
 
The shell was fired as it had the markings indicating so. When we found it , it did not have a fuse. Oddly enough, i found part of the fuse to the same type of shell within a 100 yd radius. ? We'll never know for sure but it did have a couple of cups of black powder still in it. cch
 
That is a very nice mantle piece.....:thumbup:
 
That sure cleaned up nice. That's a beauty for sure. Thanks for sharing and HH, Nancy
