    The things that struck me were the total lack of wear, aging and corrosion of any visible kind and also the crudeness of the decorative elements. The coat of arms in particular is something you would think they would have put more accuracy and detail into. It looks like something that would have been made in India in the second half of the 20th century.

    More likely got it from a yard sale or flea market. After he talked the person down in price, he then calls it an auction (reverse auction).

    Given the Roman numerals prominently displayed on the barrel, I suspect this was part of some kind of commemorative ceremony. It may actually be worth something if connected to a historical place or event. The thing that bothers me is the thought that someone may actually try to fire it.

    And there are some people who will sell it to another unsuspecting buyer, like the guy who sold me a high dollar rod and reel. I thought it was unusual because most of the time they have some fishing line left on them when being sold at the flea market. This one didn't, but everything appeared to work fine and the price was right, so I bought it. A few days later when I put fishing line on it I found out the drag was shot and wouldn't hold any pressure. Without line on it you can't check that and the seller knew that. That's why he removed the line. I went back to the flea market the next weekend, but the guy wasn't there. I asked the manager about him and he said he got lots of complaints about the guy and hadn't seen him since the week before. Apparently he just sells for one weekend and never comes back so he doesn't have to face unhappy customers. Anyway, the rod was still good, so I bought another reel (new) and my fishing rig is complete!

    Yeah, that thing is an accident waiting to happen. Load it up and it’ll go boom in several directions. Plug the touch hole at least.

    You could use it as a signal Cannon noise maker. Don't have to use much powder though. Otherwise it's pretty much a huge waste of bronze. Btw, I think the guy knew it was pretty much fake when he brought it in. He's got a poker face.😆))
