Description:This is a pretty nice 10 pounder Parrott shell with the Type III brass sabot. Iron is good with only some light ground action visible. Some TLC would make it look even better as there is some chipping and flaking of the polyurethane coating. Sabot looks unfired but it likely was as these often didn't take the rifling. The zinc time fuse adapter is better than most and pretty white. it appears to have the remains of the paper time fuse in it. The weight is 9lb 14oz so this shell is most assuredly has case shot inside.
Shell is disarmed, cleaned and coated.
