<p>[QUOTE="Chinoiserie, post: 9553787, member: 79460"]Picked this up today. It's a brass desk canon with a crest on it. The wheels are wood and the pins holding the barrel clamps down are copper. The barrel is 23cm long. This might give some indication of its age. Anyone recognise where the crest is from please? I would love to fill it with black powder and watch it go boom. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Ah it's the crest of United Kingdom. Maybe I should have know that..Dieu est Mon droit</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]456010[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456011[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456012[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456013[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
