Location Recovered: Petersburg, VA

Description:This is the last one of these 12pdr Petersburg cannon balls I have and probably the nicest. It cleaned up beautifully when run through brief electrolysis and has not been coated with any coloring whatsoever, only sealed from future moisture with light coats of spray satin finish polyurethane. I am pretty positive this is a CS cannonball. It was found along with several others in the Confederate lines West of the town. It has a faint mold seam and no meaningful pitting.
