These heavy iron pieces feature multiple protruding points designed so that one point would face upward when dropped on the ground.\n\nThe larger caltrop measures approximately 1 1\/2\" across, while the smaller measures approximately 3\/4\" across.\n\nBoth pieces show wear consistent with age and use, including surface rust, oxidation, discoloration, and worn edges. Their dark, aged surfaces give them an authentic antique appearance.\n\nThese unusual pieces make interesting additions to a military history collection, Civil War memorabilia display, or antique iron collection. Exact age and historical use have not been independently authenticated. Sold as shown in the photographs.\n\nPlease review all photographs carefully, as they are considered part of the description.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style='font-family: \"Arial\",sans-serif; background: white; font-weight: normal'\u003e\u003c?xml:namespace prefix=\"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003eFREE SHIPPING within the Continental United States.
