County: North Lincolnshire

Lead shot. Cast ball with numerous tiny crescentic marks, possibly from gnawing by rats attracted by the sugary taste of lead corrosion product, or possibly from use as an improvised teething toy. The latter is perhaps less likely in this case as the size would be ideal to choke a troublesome infant, which one would hope was not intended. Patinated. The mass points to an intended use with a light fowling piece or ‘rook and rabbit’ gun. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800

Record ID: SUSS-DB15F2
Object type: SHOT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete post medieval lead alloy shot probably from a flintlock military wall gun dating between 1700-1800 AD.
The shot is sub-spherical, with a small flattened section possibly resulting from the inclusion of the shot in a multiple load. The shot has numerous linear divots and striations across its surface, possibly caused by gas erosion, an effect occurring at the instant of firing an unwadded projectile. No evidence of a casting sprue is readily apparent.
Dimensions: diameter: 24.55mm, weight: 83.04g
The shot is too large for a musket and the finder …
