Some poor soul will think they hit a jackpot

Amazing that the whole thing is tarnished except where they just engraved it.

Saw those this morning and thought the same thing as you. I own a trophy shop and do engraving every day. You can tell that this was machine engraved and not hand engraved, which would be all that was available back in the day.

Now that would be a good deal........an average engraving machine is about $20,000 today.
