Jim, that's a very cool find. A Parker brass shell found in the Arctic. Now if it could only talk. Would love to hear more of what your research reveals. John

Edger did your match holder look something like this one:

1907 Penny glued to the cap.

Wow. Fancy, George. If my son ever gives me back my knurling tool, I'll make an end cap like that.
My every day match case was a brass 12A inside a brass 10A.
My Sunday fancy one was a nickel plated 3" 12A inside a nickel plated 3" 10A.
