Iron flintlock mechanism. 264 grams, 4" x 7". Iron does not typically fare well under the sea, but somehow this piece must have been protected (probably cocooned in coral) for all the parts of the lock are present, just rusty and corroded, but stabilized with a clear seal. From the Spanish 1733 Fleet, Florida Keys, pedigreed to the Marty Meylach collection.
