Description: | A lead alloy musket ball of Post Medieval date, about AD 1600 - 1700. It is spherical and the casting seam is visible but smoothed. The sprue has been left proud. The ball has a well developed yellow cream patina. The weight suggests it was for use in a small musket (Harding 2012, Lead Shot of the English Civil War, page 31). 17.6mm diameter, 29.62g.
