This is style [010] in McDougals Price Guide. CAUVETS over PAT over JULY 25, 1865 on the dome. The skirt is embossed W. BROOKFIELD over 55 FULTON ST. N.Y. On the back side of the skirt is a large 3 over a small 3. On the "3" side there are two wire scrapes, one on the upper ridge of the wire groove and the other on the lower ridge. The upper is about 1/2" long the lower is just a nibble. The embossing is probably average for this old timer. There also appears to be a little amber in the skirt. $65 gets it delivered to your home.
