Title: Anymore info on this keyring
Post by: RX8Head on December 12, 2011, 07:24:14 PM
Ok asking for a guy over on the RX8OC seeing as this is quite old so thought some of you guys might be able to help with anymore info on it.
This is what we know so far it\'s sterling silver and he was told it\'s at least 40years old and the seller was in California, Wikipdeia say that logo was used between 1959-1975 which would fit with it being at least 40 years.
So if you have anymore info on it then let me know and I\'ll let him know Cheers.

Could it have been a keyring for the Cosmo?

No offense, but it looks cheap and tacky and not like the old school key rings I\'ve seen.

Logo is correct for the year but I\'ve never seen one of these before,

Although rare I\'ve no idea of value as like so many things, it\'s only worth what somebody is prepared to pay to own it.

whilst it has the old style logo it could have easliy been made yesterday.
I have owned everything from a Cosmo 110s to many RX3s of that era and RX4s and have not seen one like it.

@hayden doesn\'t really bother me as it\'s not mine.
@Clive/Carl guess if neither of you have seen it before there\'s a good chance it\'s a one off as you say Carl it could have been yesterday or forty years, guess if it\'s silver it should have a hallmark which might help with age. Cheers.
