Navy Parrott Sabot for 30 Pounder Shell

SOLD

This excavated navy Parrott sabot for 30 pounder artillery shell was recovered from Petersburg, VA. It is constructed of cast brass which has aged into a nice looking mixed green-brown patina. Though bent, the sabot is a complete ring that clearly shows the five lands and grooves created by the rifling of the tube of a 30 pounder Parrott cannon upon firing. This artillery relic will be an excellent addition to any excavated Civil War artillery or general relic collection.
