Scale: Unknown. Brass model of a field gun and carriage made in a single casting. Axle mounting and other components have been riveted with copper rivets and two wheels have been bolted to the axle. Some parts appear to be missing. The barrel has a smaller diameter at the front than at the rear. There is what appears to be a swivel or towing mounting at the back of the carriage possibly filled with lead to act as a counter balance. The model is heavily tarnished.
