Title 'Miner's Companion' on the leather case, this scale is definitely Gold Rush era. Heavily padded suggesting it was a higher end piece. The weights are in troy ounces helping us identify the era and place of use. The four larger weights are present. The four smaller weights are missing. 7.5 x 4 x 2." Leather case is cracked and well worn! This was definitely in use by miner's of the period!!! State: City: Date: c1850 FHWAC#: 42822
