^Lot 1710 Original wire-shot (two lead musket-balls with coiled wire to connect them), ex-Reijgersdaal (1747),

Original wire-shot (two lead musket-balls with coiled wire to connect them), ex-Reijgersdaal (1747), in Riker display box. 51.23 grams total; 1/2" diameter. Originally cast with wire or spring between the two musket-balls, these orbs would rotate and expand thus increasing the chances of hitting a target, both small balls intact with bits of wire extant but no longer attached. From the Reijgersdaal (1747), pedigreed to the Mike Carulli Collection.
