think they call this one a teachers bell, but none I see on ebay have the metal that's in this one. Anyone want to tell me what the metal is? It's gold in color.
But all that glitters...

It's brass.

yes, thank you but its the rough interior I was wondering about, I don't see it on the others. Is it worth any more than the plain interior ones?

This looks like cast brass rather than spun brass so could be a little older !! Although the top part looks like the newer bells that are coated !! Hard to tell !!

The look to me as reproduction and quick casting brass so maybe some third world product made for the west . Not that old i think
