Antique Cast Metal Gold Eagle Flag Finial Topper PAT APPLD Forward Facing

Description

Estate find, early flag topper marked Pat. Appld. The wingspan is 5.25" - The eagle itself is 2.75" from the top of the head to the bottom of the perch or 4 1/4" total.  The diameter of the little loop hole is 1/4 - I it's for clip/pulley to be attached.   Topper is made of some type of cast metal (non magnetic) with a gold finish.  It's solid and pretty heavy for its size (7.02 oz).  This one is really nice because the eagle is looking forward which is hard to find!
Very good condition for it's age, no breaks or cracks - there's a bit of surface rust on the left wing.
