Subject:Antique metal paperweight?
Posted By: Gerald Franz Mon, Apr 07, 2014 IP: 174.63.150.110

This appears to me to be some kind of oriental paperweight. I inherited this many years ago from my grandfather, who traded coins and antiques. It is 3 1/2 inches long, and 1 3/4 inches wide, and weighs at least 2 1/2 pounds. Is this indeed a paperweight? How old is this, and does it have any value? Thanks very much!
