This tompion has a cork body with a brass cap and base. Approx. 98% of the cork body remains. The brass cap has a light patina while the base is dark.
A tompion was used by placing it in the muzzle of a musket or rifle to keep moisture and dampness out.
The brass cap and base show that this tampion is meant for use with the Pattern 1853 Enfield rifle. [ad] [ph:L]
