Original U.S. Civil War Confederate 12 Pdr Cutaway Cannon Ball with Fuse The Pacific on HBO Petain's government remained in VichyOriginal Item: Only One Available. Very well done cutaway display made from a Confederate cannonball. This is a 4. 52 Shell used with the twelve pound Napoleon Artillery Piece. The shell is fitted with a fuse, which is still present. This shell originally would have been filled with case shot and black powder. This item was excavated so the iron surface is pitted. Lead zinc fuse band shows ground action on exterior, so no numbers remain visible.
