Description: Super desirable type of friction primer. The wire coil unwound upon firing the cannons and made it easy for sailors to locate and dispose of spent, hot, copper friction primers. Otherwise, barefoot sailors might step on them or the hot primers could catch something inside their ships on fire. Recovered from the Oconee River dump site at the Milledgeville, Georgia depot location.
