The eagle screw has a split/lock washer on the inside. Seems more for a spacer than to actually lock it down. The eagle is not coated and...
Not sure why people want to keep coming up with restrictions for what could be a boat/ship light or not. I already linked three similar shaped...

Picked up some old pewter today. Couldn't pass it up for a buck. Sadly the markings are pretty much obliterated. Is there any other way to narrow...
I was thinking more of their table lighters with odd shapes. Or like this one that had an outer box and then an inner fitted clam shell case....
They made quite a variety of lighters. Possible a box for one of them.
You are opening yourself up to an upset buyer when you start off with SUPERB condition and then mention a flaw later on. Dunno how many posts i've...
