This Tennessee Sabot pattern projectile is sometimes called the Mullane shell. This pattern would have had a characteristic saucer-shaped copper sabot with center bolt and three pins holding the sabot in place. The central bolt and the copper sabot are missing. The three iron pins remain.

This shell specimen was excavated. Iron surface is lightly pitted and shows some small casting flaws. There are two bourrelets and a nice mold seam. The wood drive-in fuse adapter and burnt fuse remain in the nose (they are removeable).

This shell was recovered near Winchester, VA.   [jet]   [ph:L]
