Description: | Lead probable shot. Cast but misshapen ball, possibly flattened by impact against a hard surface while travelling at a considerable velocity, and possibly otherwise damaged; heavily patinated. The mass, at under an ounce, might suggest this to be apt to use with a light musket, carbine or pistol of military specification; or possibly that some part of a larger musket ball has been lost. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800.Length: 21.4mm, Width: 17.9mm, Thickness: 12.3mm, Weight: 26.49gms.
