USS Constitution Wood and Copper Keepsake
These glass bottles contain two pieces of wood and a copper nail removed from USS Constitution. The nail was used to hold the copper sheathing to the exterior of Constitution’s hull and was removed during a past restoration of “Old Ironsides.” The bottle is approximately 2 ½” tall and about ¾” in diameter at the bottom. This provides a unique souvenir from your visit to Constitution or a special gift for someone special.
These keepsakes were assembled exclusively for the USS Constitution Museum by a local Massachusetts small business. The tag attached to the bottle certifies the origin of the copper nail and pieces of wood as coming from “Old Ironsides.”
