I recovered this 6lb solid shot cannon ball from the Battle of Pocotaligo in South Carolina! Nice before and after pics below, gotta love electrolysis.

That solid shot was some mean stuff. Nice job on the cleaning. Does the 6 lb have a seam?
 

Nice Did you happen to paint it Black?
Or use ACV to clean it up.
Never the less a nice Piece.
