M. MERKLINGER - Philly

 

 

 

 

 

Circa 1855 Pontiled Slug Plate Squat - M. MERKLINGER

This is a very rare Philly squat that I've only ever seen twice. This is the example I had in my collection for a long time. It's a great example because it's 100% there, but it has a starburst spider crack in the shoulder. Applied double taper top and iron pontil.

Height: 7 1/2"  
Color: deep green

Condition: spotty wear, spotty haze, and the cracks that you can see in the pics - looks like the Under Armor symbol in the shoulder.

Reference Number: 2600
