So What Happened to the Paul Revere USS Constitution Bell?


I came across mention that the Constitution's bell was damaged and/or destroyed during the 1812 battle with the HMS Guerriere. Another source said the bell was carried away by a shot. Does that mean it was blown overboard and is somewhere at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean?

If it was just damaged and replaced, what happened to the original? I couldn't find out any more about it.
