b_hinch Posted November 22, 2014 Share #1 Posted November 22, 2014 I've had a pretty good week! Looks to be a good 1892 enlisted EGA on this tankard made from an old shell casing. The casing is dated 1899. Too bad it has been polished in recent years, but there is still a little patina to it. Old Navy button on the lid. A really neat and well-made piece.
