Description:Rare Archer fuse that has been drilled out to accommodate a paper time fuse. These are pretty much only found in the Mobile area defenses. A scrap of paper tucked inside this one gives the recovery information: "Found in hollow between Old Spanish Fort" and Battery McDermott. Dec. 13, 1975"
The top of this fuse broke on impact and a piece chipped off. A piece of another of these fuses that fits very well there is included.
