Description: | A complete post-Medieval lead alloy musket ball (c. 1600-c. 1800).This ball is flattened in two areas, possibly due to impact. It also has a small dent and a short scar. The scar may be the result of the removal of sprue.The ball is grey overall.Diameter: 15.0mm. Weight: 12.54g. The weight suggests that it could have been used in a pistol (Harding 2012).Harding, D.F., 2012. Lead Shot of the English Civil War: A Radical Study. London. Foresight Books. London.
