<p>[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 4561490, member: 88"]I picked this up at the GW a few weeks back. I thought it was neat & I thought I could sell it for more than the $9.72 I had to pay. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, the matching goblets were nowhere to be found even when I went back the next day. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie48" alt=":grumpy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie48" alt=":grumpy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie48" alt=":grumpy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>I started to post this in the silver section but obviously I know who made it & when it was made but I was hoping someone could help me with the dedication on the lid.
