Description:This is a very nice 12-lber wood fuse ball. It has not been cleaned but has only the slightest old surface rust and very minimal ground action so I've opted not to run it through electrolysis but can do that for the buyer if desired. The powder cavity is as clean as the outside surface. The shell is definitely not a polygonal cavity. It may be a mortar ball but I'm not sure how to tell for sure. A really nice shell for the money.

FYI...The three images below are a top, bottom and side view.
