Description: | A lead alloy musket ball of post-Medieval date, circa 1644. The ball is distorted, probably the result of impact damage. The ball has a yellowish-grey patina. It is 16.8mm in diameter and weighs 25.52gm. The weight suggests that this would have been used in an arquebus or caliver. (Harding (2012) Lead Shot of the English Civil War: a Radical Study.)
