Long Description

THIS LIGHTER HAS TWO DATES ON IT ONE ON BOTH SIDES WITH A SYMBOL. I WENT TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE AT AN ANTIQUE STORE WHO KNEW MORE THAN ME, HE SAID THAT THE TWO SYMBOLS ON IT RESEMBLE COINS FROM BACK IN THAT TIME.. THE TIMES WERE RIGHT AT THE WORLD WAR 2 AND THE HOLACAUST WE BELIEVE IT WAS A HILTER LIGHTER. IT HAS A NAZI SYMBOL ON IT. I KNOW ALOT OF PEOPLE DONT WANT TO DEAL WITH THIS PIECE BECAUSE OF WHERE AND WHEN IT CAME FROM BUT PEOPLE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS AN ANTIQUE FROM THE PAST MEANING HISTORY DOESNT MEAN PRESENT. THIS ITEM DOESNT MEAN WE ARE RACEIST!!! THIS ITEM IS OUR PAST AND WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO LEARN ABOUT IT AND SOMEONE OUT THERE KNOWS ALOT ABOUT THIS PIECE OR COLLECTS HISTORY.. SO PLEASE DONT LOOK AT THIS AS A MEAN INSULT WE ARE JUST LEARNING ABOUT THIS.. THANK YOU

Long Description

I have recently come across an old english tea kettle.  It's a metal kettle that fits into a stand with an oil lamp type heater underneath.  It is in good condition, no chips, dents or anything broken.  It is marked on the bottom with "England" and the year 1663.  I am not sure who it was made by or what type of metal it is made from.  Just looking for anyone who can help me learn anything about this kettle.  Not looking to sell...as it came from a family estate....just looking for info!  Thanks

I'm trying to send a pic. But does anyone know anything about these clocks. Can't find information about these old clocks on the internet.  I'm trying to get an idea of how much it's worth, because I have to sell it.  I know pics needed but if anyone can help me out with some info. it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
