PLEASE BE ADVISED: Because Ebay has instituted a policy of making its own "offered reduced sales prices, deciding what it believes is reasonable on no basis whatsoever, and without the Seller’s advanced notice, I have deleted the listing option “Offers Accepted.” HOWEVER, I am generally willing to consider offers in some instances and it is always worth inquiring through messaging.
AUTHENTIC MINIATURE REV WAR ERA COPPER TRICORN HAT AND FLINTLOCK PISTOL
SET IN 14 K SOLID GOLD STICK PIN. Gold-filled catch provided (see photo).
FANTASTIC STICKPIN FOR THE REV WAR COLLECTOR!
Guaranteed: The beautifully patinated tricorn hat and flintlock pistol
( found in a muddy area of a military encampment, possibly
American, possibly British) were around during our struggle for independence.
Perhaps, they were belt ornaments, or a child's game pieces.
As for the gold, I'm guessing with gold at about 3k an oz. this amount is worth at least $550. Haven't weighed it. And, to have
a crafts-person make the stickpin would cost at least $500, not even talking about the gold.
MEASURES: 3 1/2 inches long Tricorn: 5/8th’s inches wide Flintlock: Just over 1 inch long
Condition: As shown. Superb patina, flintlock muzzle, tiny bit of edge erosion.
ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEED AS DESCRIBED.
