This large bronze screw is approximately 9 feet in diameter indicating that it came of a ship of substantial size. With several Navy and commercial shipyards in San Diego Bay a screw of this size would not be difficult to acquire, but would be rather expensive just because of the scrap value of the bronze alone.
