Appealing piece of the hull of the USS Constitution removed during its 1927 renovation, measuring 3.25″ x 2.5″ x 2″, with the original bronze plate attached: "This material was taken from the original hull of the U.S. Frigate Constitution, Keel laid 1794, Rebuilding 1927." The surface, color, patina, size, and shape give this piece 'museum quality' visual appeal. In fine condition.
