This beat-up paperweight is an oldie I think?. I stopped for a quick look-see at a Unique TS on the way to pick up some carbide rock drill bits to run up to a tunnel job going on here in Colorado. The paperweight is in sad shape, but I did in the past find one that I sent back east to have the surface ground and polished as it was an old Baccarat, called a triple trefoil millefiorie and the guy gave it an apprised price of a 'Grand' on that one once finished. I got it for $15. and paid a $100. + freight, for the re-grind and polish and put it on eBay, but only got something like $380. for it.(some difference I'd say)...I put around $125. in to it. This one may not be worth the expense and I need some collectors to give me their opinions on what for sure it is? plus my best options for it. Sell as-is or spend the money and get it looking pretty or find out it's really nothing. I'll most likely stash it away and foget-a bout-it.
