Stamped clearly into the concave side of the metal is the "Gypsy King" identifier, a classic mark from the Weber Life-Like Fly Co. based in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. This teardrop-shaped spoon features a warm, reflective copper finish that shows light signs of honest use, which reflects its 4/5 condition rating. At 2/5 oz (11 g) and a length of 2 1/4" (6 cm), the Gypsy King 0 (Product Code: 22680) is built with a substantial metal thickness for its size, designed for efficient casting or trolling. The hardware setup includes a sturdy split ring at the head for your line tie and another at the tail securing the original bronzed treble hook. The American-made copper surface has developed a subtle, darkened character over time, providing a natural presentation that works well in clear water or under bright sun. Small surface marks on the convex face indicate this specimen has spent some time in a tackle box, though the structural integrity of the metal and the sharpness of the stamp remain very well-preserved.
