Hope you can see this.

3.3 Grams 14Kt From 1902 made by Graf&Niemann of Pitt.
I can't find a thing on it other than the legend that this was worn by "HW" himself.

Quotes welcome.

Wow! That is awesome. Where did you auction it?
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered....The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

How did you aquire it? And how much did you pay for it originally? If you don't mind my asking. 20k is a good chunk of change.

It was a friend of mines. A family heirloom. Was trying to see if anyone out there ever seen anything like it. Some famous auction house in PA bought it.
