Hey everyone š Iām new to this site, but have been a treasure hunter at heart since I was a child. Today I was doing some Antique hunting and this chest was sitting in a dark corner and somehow caught my eye.
Stamped on the latch is a patent number and year. It looks to be 145 years old and still has the compartments, which Iāve personally never seen. It definitely caught my interest so I bought it. From my research, I think it may be a 1875 Saratoga Chest, but Iām not sure. I always donāt know if itās worth anything. Itās not in the best shape but definitely unique to me. Any ideas!
