I would check the point gap and take a look at the
points to see if they're pitted. Gap for mag is .013" and .020" for a distributor. If they're pitted I would replace condenser & points. That coil is probably cooked if 12 volts were connected. Here's a good procedure if have a distributor with a coil.

No Fire! Clean and dry distr. cap
Check for battery voltage at the coil. Use a volt meter or test lite.
Check for battery voltage at the points. Use volt meter or test lite.
Remove distr. cap, rotor & points cover, remove coil wire from cap and hold within 1/4" of a ground.
With points closed & ignition switch on, snap the points open a few times watch for any spark at the coil wire end.
No spark: may have dirty or burned points, bad condenser or coil.
Note:Coil primary (battery voltage) wire to points
must be attached to the + on the coil if the battery is + grounded.
