<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 2849, member: 54"]S.N.Y. appears on many older items once owned by the State of New York. My company has a 650-lb. bronze cannon made in 1796 with "S.N.Y." engraved on top, since it was once owned by the State of New York. The weight could have been used by N.Y. state "weights and measures" inspectors, but most weight standards I've seen were made of brass. Beyond that, I dunno.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
