Small bronze handbell. 214 grams, about 4-1/2" tall and 3" in diameter. Cute item, just like a ship's bell but in miniature, unfortunately corroded but with traces of design on exterior that shows birds with outstretched wings, hole at top for hanging, brassy color peeking through dark bronze, lightly encrusted inside. From the mid-1500s "Pewter Wreck," with Global Marine Exploration photo-certificate #PC02231. Recovered from: "Pewter Wreck," sunk in the mid-1500s off Santo Domingo
