TWO CANNON BALLS. American 2ndTWO CANNON BALLS. American 2nd half-19th century. Civil War-era 20'' shell weighing 37.5 lbs. and a 22'' shell weighing 46.5 lbs.
PAIR OF AMERICAN CIVIL WAR IRONPAIR OF AMERICAN CIVIL WAR IRON CANNONBALLSNorth America, United States, Civil War era, ca. 1861 to 1865 CE. A fine pair of cast-iron cannonballs made to be fired out of the barrel of a cannon at opposing soldiers. Each spherical projectile features a faded casting seam across the center that indicates it was formed via a bivalve mold. Bivalve molds allowed for faster production methods and a more consistent spherical form for each ball since shaping a solid mass of iron into a sphere is difficult to do by hand. Layers of age-commensurate oxidation cover the surfaces. Size of each (both are nearly identical): 3.05" Diameter (7.7 cm)
