This listing is for the Vintage Fort McHenry Rodman Smoothbore Cannon Sterling Silver Charm. This vintage 925 sterling silver pendant is a detailed 3D miniature of the iconic 15-inch Rodman smoothbore cannon located at Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine in Baltimore, Maryland. The charm captures the distinct bottle-shaped silhouette of the massive artillery piece, which was a technological marvel of the mid-19th century. The side of the cannon carriage features a crisp engraving that reads FT. MCHENRY, identifying it as an authentic souvenir from the historic site where the Star-Spangled Banner was born. These specific cannons, designed by Thomas Jackson Rodman, were revolutionary for their internal cooling casting process, allowing them to fire 450-pound shells at an incredible range. Great Find!!!
