Description:Awesome cannon ball with the star stamp that denotes it was made in Columbia or, more likely, Charleston. We see this same stamp on the bottom of the sabots of some big Carolina Brooke shells. This one has the thick walls and no tong holes so it was intended to be fired from one of the massive 10in Columbiad guns mounted at the Fort. Iron is rock solid. I'll cap shipping charges at $80 for anywhere in the lower 48 states.
