Recovered at K̦nigstein Castle, Hesse, Germany, between Frankfurt and Wiesbaden.

Rarely encountered with such specific and historic information. Iron, just under 3 3/4‰۝ length with elongated pyramidal form point and open seam conical socket. Sound excellent excavated condition, professionally preserved. The evolution of the crossbow paralleled that or plate armor and the bolts such as this could penetrate all but the thickest plate.åÊ
