Description
Brig of Unknown nationality, which was dismantled in 1850 for an unreported reason. The extracted objects were separated by material type (iron, copper) and later auctioned.
Notes
More information is lacking. Among the possibilities that explain the dismantling: abandonment, shipwreck in shallow waters, or seizure of the vessel. The only accessible publication that mentions it does not use the term "shipwreck". On page 4 of the source, there are details about the auction, with a description and values of the objects.
