Offered here is a rare iron hand grenade. This is an early hand grenade and could easily date to the Revolutionary War-era with a visible mold seam and rough sprue mark on bottom. But we cannot say that it is not of Civil War vintage. Appearing like a small cannon ball, it was light enough to be thrown by hand into enemy works.
Measures approximately 3.2” in diameter. Its walls are nearly 0.4” thick and there is a 0.7” wide fuse hole in the top.
It is non-dug but has some light spotty surface rust; likely from being stored in a humid environment. [jet][ph:L]
