In NOAA's wreck site 15577 they found also lead strips covering the stem while the hull was sheathed with copper.

Interesting. I will ask knowledgeable colleagues to share on the subject. For me, lead is not a suitable material for a hearth.

Check the pins, spikes for initials, GME has found hundreds and hundreds of these pieces and some from one ship had an FV stamped on it, turns out this guy invented the beer tap, or one of them

In Fact when Jason Nowell worked at GME he is the one that did the research on this artifact as he was the conservator for GME at the time.

GME also found many artifacts in the DR with markings, of weight, dates, name of makers, origin, etc. such as cannon balls, cannon, anchors, tools, pewter plates and ware, bronze nested weights, bells,
But if you ask an archaeologist that works for the State of Florida they will say nothing has markings on it. hmmm makes you wonder where they went to school

I can't see any legible marks on the spikes, to be hones there are many marks but they are mor like scratch and rust marks.

I'm trying to clean the spikes the best I can hoping I can uncover some markings. Thank you guys for your comments!
