I found this at a flea market. Got it cheap, any idea how old it is or what it may be worth? Even what kind of navy vessel it would have been used for? Thanks in advance for any info or guesses and happy new year [emoji323][emoji322][emoji323][emoji322][emoji323] ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1514601095.026124.webpImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1514601107.653265.webpImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1514601149.607112.webp

It looks like the ones we had on our small boats such as the Captain’s Gig, no idea about the age they haven’t changed much in design in a long time.
 
A 15lb Navy? How many do you want? I sell them for 15.00 each or a dollar a pound. I used to have over 50 beside my house but a guy that makes things out of them said they would make good dog ears and bought over 20 of them.

They are worth what someone is willing to pay you for it. I find them rubber coated and painted but a lot of them are rusted.
 
Maybe not rare of valuable, but its still a neat Flea Market find.
 
Cool anchor. Small craft stuff. Probably not used on a boat over 25’.
