Title: Shooting Trophy?
Post by: klj5377 on December 24, 2005, 03:17:12 PM

Can anyone tell me what this is and possible the age?  I found it in Germany. http://www.snapfish.com/slideshow/AlbumID=...029/t_=39860029 (http://www.snapfish.com/slideshow/AlbumID=34044492/PictureID=984526386/a=39860029_39860029/t_=39860029)
It is almost 16" in diameter and an inch thick.  The consignment shop owner told me is is a shooting target, where the winner took home the plaque as the prize.  It has no ID markings, and is embedded with several peices of shot.  Thanks in advance for the help.

I have seen one before I think it is about 1920.
It will have value but is difficult to say  I would think about £30, but E bay may prove me wrong.
I like it

Thanks.  I like it too, so probably won't part with it.  I spent $30 on it and it will look great in my house built in 1900.

Thanks for the info.
