Is a cannon ball bounce?

When a cannonball hits the ground (and I mean the earth's natural field a battlefield) could rebound enough to travel further damage and to make people stand outside the original scope of its impact?

Yes, the discovery channel myth busters show really made a presentation on this once after someone asked the same question because I saw a barrel dribbling in a movie of war. Cannon balls are very heavy … so if you hit a soft or low density as dirt or grass that usually come and make a divet to rest, where the earth. However, if you throw down a path that can jump … like skipping rocks on a lake … in fact if shot at a sufficient rate speed that can even jump in a lake themselves. As he stepped down ontop of myth busters study the construction of the cannon ball hit the concrete, made some major damage Jamie did really crazy and left the steel but rather fascinating film stud … showed slow, then when the cannonball left the sidewalk actually bounced once … a little small. Research also made a revolutionary and Civil War historians and found that a large Most injuries cannonball of the time actually came from low flying taking bullets in the legs and as in the movie. In fact, the myth was not some rebound of the cannon balls … was the big explosion of dust and debris flying out and take 15 guys around him. Cannonballs not break when land like grenades and bombs … so it does not really happen. Sometimes, if the ground is soft enough, there will be a great cloud of dust, but unless the ground is covered of nails and scrap metal … there will be no shrapnel in the dust cloud caused damage. Most often, however, the land was uncultivated was therefore generally quite difficult for a cannonball fell with a thud and lay there. Experts say there are opportunities even after a battle the winning side to go out and collect all the spent cannonballs off the court and re-use. The greatest danger from cannon balls at the time was actually flying down the rebounds which jumped down and pulled the legs out, and it was … (Incidentally at the scene in The Patriot, which rebounded enough high to take the head of the boys … which he was arrested. They are too dense to really BOUNCE well … skip more or less what is still a form of firing but Most injuries were leg injuries beheaded NO by Cannon Ball) … had a low chance of landing a cannon ball directly to a person, but the odds were outstanding … I can not remember the actual number now but I know when I've seen … my jaw dropped.

2007 was a banner year for auctions Hosted by Rm Smythe & Co. With

Manhattan, New York – January 31, 2008 – RM Smythe & Co. held six
auctions in 2007 offering historical autographs, currency, coins,
stocks, bonds, antiques and even two guns. When compiling a list of
lots more interesting than sold in 2007, a unifying factor
which conforms to all elements of the list is looking for collectors
quality merchandise. This relentless pursuit of quality became evident
in heavy bidding activity resulting from the final bids that in many cases far
exceeded pre-auction forecasts and established new auction records. Of
particular stressed the sale was December 12 to 13 # 275 Part 13 of the
Schingoethe obsolete coin collection, which saw many notes
sales of up to 10 times their presale estimates, with 94% of 1162
lots sold in the final gavel (See http://www.news-antique.com/?id=783436

only a small part of the antique and collectible merchandise that was
very active bidding on the Smythe auction floor in 2007.

Gobrechts 1838 (Judd-84) are considered R.5. This piece has
Slate tone Dark Gray, but when turned on the light, very attractive
underlying tones of copper, gold, aqua and blue can be seen. The test
flash is very visible in the layers color. Fully locked, which
They are often not. Eagle feathers are very different. Although
very attractive, there are some hairlines in the obverse fields
adjacent to Liberty States below, and below the eagle. Not perfect, but
rare this nice.

1911 Matte Proof NGC PR-66. There is no doubt that the double eagles
designed by Augustus Saint Gaudens are the most beautiful coins beaten by
the United States for general circulation. During this period of currency
history, U.S. Mint was experimenting on how to make that our currency more
art. One way was the new process the mint gold used for test
currencies, resulting in what we now know as "matte proofs." Were
is not well received by the public, and the minting of gold in for tests
dropped further. Coinage 1911 was only 100 pieces beaten. This
coin is a picture-perfect example of the type of test mate. Pale yellow
deeply beaten and nearly flawless.

New York Ch.E923. / Brooklyn. / Note: First. $ 10. Fr.624. PB 1902.
No.D765506 / 1 Option A-Gem Uncirculated. An incredibly rare series
1 red seal of Brooklyn that has not appeared publicly since
Kriegsberg sale in 1965. Totally original and in almost perfect
condition except for some minor handling. The highlight of our national agenda
Offers that promises to generate very aggressive bidding.

Sale # 270 – Lot # 3501 – Presale Estimate $ 25,000 onwards – Final Bid $ 30,000
$ 1,000. A. T-1. Cr.1. No. 129. PF-1. A sharp, bright and remarkably vivid
example, which until now has never appeared in any public sale. Its
existence was unknown to Criswell, Ball, Shull, or Fricke! VF or better
with mild to moderate seven vertical folds. Hammer perfectly canceled
no missing pieces. Very boldly Clitherall run firms
and Elmore. In the two runs back in pencil lightly, stamp
hinges behind the cancellation, and a water stain inconsequential. None
of this is distracting, and have no impact on the election
appearance of the note when viewed from the front. Great visual appeal,
with the bright green color, razor sharp images and black text and a large
and even margins on all four sides. Strictly original, no repairs
or “ conservation''often found in Type 1 Confederate notes. This
is a note that would fit very well in almost any capacity museum
CSA paper money collection. VF, CC. Ironically, the first
Confederate paper money was recorded and printed by the National Bank
Note by the company, New York City. Shortly after the notes were ordered and
delivered, hostilities at Fort Sumter, and U.S. Marshals
, Passed the National Bank Note The company's offices and confiscated
printing plates. From 607 $ 1,000 Montgomery notes issued, 116 are
known, 9 in uncirculated condition, and two of them are canceled.
Perhaps a third of the survivors are virtually unobtainable, locked
in public and private institutions. Notes of $ 1000 were signed by
Alexander B. Clitherall as Register and Edward Elmore as Treasurer. The
Mr. Elmore fire was not a man can play. Mr. Daniels, the
editor of a Richmond newspaper, wrote an article claiming that Elmore
was a compulsive gambler who is embezzling large sums from the Treasury.
Elmore immediately challenged Daniels to a duel and shot him! This
Criswell extraordinary Type-1 has never been offered publicly or
recorded in any census, and probably been collected decades before
Confederation rare paper currency is considered particularly
valuable. This may explain the fact that, apart from being
carefully removed from the two hinges holding a stamp album
page, the note has not been altered in any way. Worth a
premium offer.

Newman commissioned by Flower and the contract was signed in 1933.
Although Churchill continued working on the manuscript, his public
rights can not carry out the work by the outbreak of war in
1939, when he returned to his old post as First Lord of Admiralty him
issued 450,000 words to the editor in the best shape it had been
able to give, to cover their subject from the beginnings to the
assassination of Abraham Lincoln. When after the mighty deeds of the
next six years and lost the 1945 elections, Sir Winston had the
the time and inclination again to take the pen, which was the new
project, World War II, he turned first. With these six
volumes successfully concluded, was able to re-examine the unfinished
History of the English Speaking Peoples who had been neglected in
ominous circumstances so many years earlier. Churchill had recently

poor agreement between Churchill and his publisher, focused on one of its
most important works.
