    D972. Fancy Antique Silver Watch Chain. This is an early and very nice sterling or coin silver watch chain that I would date to the late 1800s. The chain is triple braided with T-bar and original matching fob. In addition, the chain has two charms added to the center, one is a pair of field glasses, and the other is a heart with a Stanhope lens. The image is of a standing man in ca late 1800s military uniform with his wife who is seated. This is a vest chain - the watch is attached to one end and goes in one vest pocket. The T-bar goes in the other vest pocket button hole, and the fob hangs out. However, some people wear these in other ways. The chain has only light wear. The overall length is about 9". This chain is not marked but I guarantee it is either sterling or coin silver. It is probably American made although the Stanhope lens is English and has a hallmark that dates to 1892. This chain is heavy enough for a 16 size or smaller pocket watch. $215
