Description
Ten karat gold pin with green and white enamel, in the original box. On the front of the pin, gold lettering on an upward curving arch of green enamel reads "G FOX & CO." Below that, a downward curving arch of green enamel reads, "25 YEARS". Between the two sections of green enamel, a Gothic letter "A" is supported by a lion on each side. Below the lions, a scroll with white enamel reads, "MOSES FOX CLUB". The pin is hinged on the back with a pin on one side that closes into a clasp on the other side. The back of the pin is stamped, "M.H.B." on top, and "1930" on the bottom. The box is a single piece covered in tan velvet, with gold paper trim around the edge of the top. The box hinges at the back. The interior is lined with cream colored silk. The silk lining on the top of the interior is printed in dark brown letters. They read, "G. FOX & CO./ ESTABLISHED 1847 HARTFORD".
