Location Recovered: Shiloh / Corinth area

Description:Three different size musketballs recovered near Shiloh by our good friend Brant Arnold. The smallest is a nice, albeit common, 0.65" lead ball ("musketball" but used in canister and case). It has a casting sprue and is included but really there for scale to set off the other two rare ones. They are from 2.6" and 3.6" Wiard canisters which are both rarity 10 types pretty much only recovered at Shiloh in this form when they were still using the lead cans and balls. These are tough ones to get for a collection.
