“Hey! You scratched my anchor!”
That’s an anchor baby!
More shapely than those large rocks with holes cut through the middle that ancient mariners used.
Somebody forgot to check the knot.
Love it when old historical items are discovered....lets you ‘view’ history in a tangible way.
Surprising that it’s not completely rusted away.
They finally found Dan Rather, huh?
Well, anchors aweigh!

Why do anchors have two instead of three tines?
I’ll bet it was 50% rust and was very delicately brought up. Perhaps wrapped in a net.
That must be the anchor that was referred to in the 2000 year old Roman joke book.................
