Presented is a turned bronze miniature of the type of cannons that armed our Colonial Navy’s frigates.
Its proportions are of a ship’s long gun. The touch hole and bore are functional, but
the cannon is sold for display only and should not be fired. There is no carriage. It is very heavy for its size. It
has the characteristics of the most noteworthy examples of miniature cannons of this period and type which include:
- Prominent cascabal knob
- Reinforced chamber
- Low line trunions
- Six reinforcing bands
CONDITION: It is in fine condition, but because
of its age should not be fired. There are no apparent mold marks or inscriptions other then “07, #2” etched in the under
side. The patina is mainly dark brown.
