I would say a late 19th C example rather than the earlier type. However, never seen them dug with the carriage, that is a massive bonus - big congrats to the OP.

Very awesome find indeed.
Toys as old as this are my absolute favorite kind of find, and nearly never show up under anyone's coil, far more rare than almost any coin. Being complete I call banner. I would love to dig that or similar.

Voted.

EDIT; sorry your very new (Welcome to T-net) so you won't get banner consideration, but it still is a banner find in my book.

Ok... Right from rip on this... Banner.... ehhh Period...
And...
You have one of 2 poss things...
#1. You have a copy of a VERY early RARE cannon.
#2. Its the real deal... FROM that era OR close.

A mazing.
Congrats on this man... seriously.

OH PS> EITHER outcome... THIS IS a banner of banners in my book.
Just killer.
