Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile #3, 1/3oz gold fishing spoon #19384

Polished gold plating defines the finish of this 1/3 oz (10 g) Luhr Jensen spoon. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, the Krocodile #3 represents a classic piece of American tackle engineering, with the reverse side clearly stamped with the manufacturer's name and model. The specimen, identified by product code 19384, is equipped with a distinctive red treble hook, providing a focused visual point for following fish. Both the hook and the included barrel swivel are attached via robust split rings, a testament to the durable construction intended for heavy casting or trolling. With a condition rating of 5/5, the metal surfaces are clean and highly reflective, mirroring light effectively. The thick-gauge metal used in this USA-made model provides the necessary density for reaching significant distance when casting from shore or a boat.
