Yeah, I saw that flask auction. The winner got a good price for it, if you ask me! I paid quite a bit more for mine.

And as for the pin, any idea what the certificate of authenticity says? I'd be curious to hear. The guy I got mine from is the one who made them, and he mentioned only six of the gold plated pins being made. I'm curious if that's actually true. :)

Wasn't there a pewter tin made that looked similar to the flask?
