$4000.00

Here is a fine, mint condition, Tiffany double handbag or purse, dating from the 1890's or so. It is solid, not plated, 14k gold, and weighs just over 6 troy ounces or 188.5 grams. The purse is actually a coin purse, inside a larger pocketbook. The bag, with out chain measures about 7 inches long and 4 inches deep. It is stamped 14K on both the inner and outer purse frames along with "MADE FOR TIFFANY & CO."on the inside frame of the attached coin purse. The frames of both purses are engraved with identical floral designs, and are quite elegant. The inside frame of the large purse also has engraved "Mrs W.R. Mygatt Chicago". No one of course would "scrap" this for its gold content, but its weight 188 grams or 121.29 pennyweight of gold means that the pure gold value of the purse is about $1400. Please note again, that the bag is in mint condition. ID=14KGOLDPURSE1
