1700's cannon balls from Governor Dummer's War

[How Lucky]

Found two cannonballs today. When I get them cleaned up I'll post the pictures.
I believe the cannonballs are from a major engagement between the English and the Wabanaki Confederacy in the Governor Dummer's War. They measure 2 3/4". I hope to find more and other artifacts. I will post when I do.

If I might ask, how did you clean them?

 

[How Lucky]

Just a wire wheel.

Went back today and found more shrapnel and a few other items.

More shrapnel found yesterday. Three that are parts of a cannonball and three possibles. The two smaller on the left have the curvature of the ball. The three on the right may have broken away from the interior of the sphere.
