Miner's Plummet, marked YOUNG & SONS PHILA. on the spreader. 7" long, 2" diameter body, with fully gimbled mount and 17" long original chains. The cap removes and under is a wick that extends into the body of the plummet. This cavity was filled with oil to fuel the plummet. In mining, surveyors would mark the roof of the mine rather than the floor, as any mark on the floor would soon be obliterated or covered with dirt. The plummet would hang from the roof of the shaft, with the gimbled mount keeping the flame upright. The surveyor would site to the flame. These are perhaps the rarest type of plumb bob, sought by both tool collectors and mining collectors. Body has some minor surface scratches and dents. I suspect this plummet was probably never used as the condition is very, very good. Steel tip still maintains its point. Check must clear, MO goes out the next day. Packing, shipping and insurance will add $15. Good luck on this exceptionally rare piece.

Details for the seller and high bidder(s):
The seller should contact the winning bidder(s) with information on the total cost, including shipping, and where to send payment. The winning bidder(s) must pay the seller directly for the item(s), and it is the seller's responsibility to fulfill the order when payment terms are met. The binding contract of the auction is between the winning bidder and the seller.

If the seller is unable to establish contact with the high bidder within 3 business days of the end of the auction, he/she may lose the place as winning bidder, and be at risk for receiving negative feedback and/or a Non-Paying Bidder warning, both of which can ultimately lead to suspension from eBay.
