Shipwreck Artifact HMS Winchester 1695 Bronze Spike with COA
Bronze Bronze Spike# FO-0211 The following is for informational purposes only. None of the items pictured or described below are included in this auction. Display and ballast stones are available for an additional cost. Please see below. Bronze is an alloy consisting primarily of copper. Usually with tin as the main additive. Bronze is superior to just copper, by being harder, being more resistant to corrosion. Bronze bars and spikes were used in the construction of ships from a very early time. With bronze being very expensive compared to iron. Its use was often reserved for flagships or areas of the ship that were not serviceable. Most military ships in the early 1700's primarily used iron fasteners and cannons due to the high cost of bronze. You will however see flagships and the ships of high ranking military personnel using bronze ... moreextensively. Including their cannon. Bronze was a perfect ship building material as it is very strong but does not rust like iron. On our ship we found many iron spikes and nails that had completely deteriorated leaving behind only their empty encrustation. The impression left behind by a lone gone square nail. Typically bronze only oxidizes superficially; once a copper oxide(eventually becoming copper carbonate) layer is formed. The underlying metal is protected from further corrosion. However, if copper chlorides are formed, a corrosion-mode called"bronze disease" will eventually completely destroy it. In rare circumstances reverse electrolysis is needed to preserve bronze. Although the bronze is quite beautiful when cleaned. Many artifact collectors prefer to leave the item as found. We have learned that a long soaking in salt away, followed by numerous baths in distilled water is sufficient for the bronze found at our wreck site. The most popular choice is to clean the artifact 50/50. Leaving half as found. This allows the beauty of both the bronze and the patina of the years on the ocean bottom to be enjoyed. Before and after being cleaned 50/50 Very few bronze b

She was 121 feet long, and she had a 38 foot beam. The Winchester was originally commissioned in 1693 under the command of Captain Edward Bibb. While en route from Jamaica to England, a plaque on board quickly spread throughout her crew, rendering them unable to perform their duties. Her Captain, who was also sick, was put ashore in Jamaica. The Winchester's command was ... moreturned over to Captain John Soule. After leaving Port Royal, the crew continued to drop like flies from the scurvy. One report lists only eight able bodied seamen still standing when she was sailed onto a reef on September 24, 1695. A few of her crew including Captain Soule were transferred to another vessel. Captain Soule died later, and unfortunately almost all 400 of her crew were lost. Your purchase is a responsibility to care for this item and share its story.

Shipwreck Artifact HMS Winchester 1695 Bronze Rod with COA FO-0207
Bronze Bronze Spike# FO-0207. The following is for informational purposes only. None of the items pictured or described below are included in this auction. Display and ballast stones are available for an additional cost. Please see below. Bronze is an alloy consisting primarily of copper. Usually with tin as the main additive. Bronze is superior to just copper, by being harder, being more resistant to corrosion. Bronze bars and spikes were used in the construction of ships from a very early time. With bronze being very expensive compared to iron. Its use was often reserved for flagships or areas of the ship that were not serviceable. Most military ships in the early 1700's primarily used iron fasteners and cannons due to the high cost of bronze. You will however see flagships and the ships of high ranking military personnel using bronze ... moreextensively. Including their cannon. Bronze was a perfect ship building material as it is very strong but does not rust like iron. On our ship we found many iron spikes and nails that had completely deteriorated leaving behind only their empty encrustation. The impression left behind by a lone gone square nail. Typically bronze only oxidizes superficially; once a copper oxide(eventually becoming copper carbonate) layer is formed. The underlying metal is protected from further corrosion. However, if copper chlorides are formed, a corrosion-mode called"bronze disease" will eventually completely destroy it. In rare circumstances reverse electrolysis is needed to preserve bronze. Although the bronze is quite beautiful when cleaned. Many artifact collectors prefer to leave the item as found. We have learned that a long soaking in salt away, followed by numerous baths in distilled water is sufficient for the bronze found at our wreck site. The most popular choice is to clean the artifact 50/50. Leaving half as found. This allows the beauty of both the bronze and the patina of the years on the ocean bottom to be enjoyed.

Shipwreck Artifact HMS Winchester 1695 Lead Sheet with COA FO-0303
Bronze HMS Winchester. 1695 Lead Sheet# FO-0303 Beautiful. Heavy piece. No holes. Low alpha lead. The following is for informational purposes only. None of the items pictured or described below are included in this auction. Lead had many uses in the old world. Its low melting temperature and good strength made it very useful in many applications. Use on the hull. One problem sailors encountered in the day was the shipworm(Teredo navalis) The wood-boring mollusk used the planks of ships’ hulls as a habitat and food source. And could cause significant damage in as little as two years. Sheathing the hull with lead, and later copper, was used to combat this marine enemy. This ship was not sheathed in lead or copper. Lead was also used to patch holes in the hull. And this HMS had numerous patches, the largest being 60lbs with clear sheathing tack ... moreholes and impressions of the ships timbers. Since lead is relatively soft it could be pounded in place and sheathing tacks can easily be driven through it. The process generally was to cover the hole or leak. Caulk, line with canvas, then add a sheet of lead. Fittings Lead was used extensively throughout the ship. Pictured above is a toilet ring and bilge strainer. Bilge strainers like this prevented debris from entering the pumps that were used to remove water from the lowest parts of the ship. Armament. We have found many different calibers of musket and pistol shot including a number of grape shot clusters which were 9 musket balls wrapped in cloth for use in the swivel cannons. Many of the musket balls have clear teeth marks in them giving us a personal connection with the sailors on board. Sailors would chew musket balls to keep their saliva flowing and fend off thirst. 9 musket balls wrapped in cloth to make a grape shot cluster for the swivel guns. Fortunately lead is very resistant to breakdown in salt water and minimal preservation is needed in most cases. All of our lead is very stable. Very few people have a chance to own a piece of history like this. This ship
