This wrought iron bolt and nut were found partially embedded in an iron oxide concretion. The embedded portion was semi protected from a century of mechanical corrosion from waves and sand while the partially exposed portion was deeply mechanically corroded resulting in a rare dual texture presentation. There are enough of the original bolt threads for the nut to spin like new in one area, it can also be completely removed.
Approx 8” long by 1” thick bolt. Nut 1” deep and 1.5” diameter.
