| Scope | Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Bronze cannon that was preserved under sea-water for 300 years as a result of an fortuitous sacrifical anode. |
| Used in | Global usage |
| Reason | The large cannon in this image was preserved under sea-water for over 300 years as a result of resting on two cast iron cannons that acted as "sacrifical anodes". The smaller, heavily corroded cannon shows how it would have looked had there been no sacrifical anode. -- Martinvl (talk) |
