This is one variation of the experimental waterproofing seals used on the .49 Gyrojets. The entire base is coated with an amber sealant. A nice example with a little surface rust that could be cleaned if desired. Check out Mel’s book to see the other experimental seals used on the .49 Gyrojet rockets.
