Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), this Seneca classic showcases a distinct split-finish design that collectors highly prize. One side gleams with a polished nickel, while the opposite half is finished in a vibrant blue accented by four well-defined red dots. This specific model, identified by product code 9772, carries the iconic hula dancer stamp on the reverse side—a hallmark of the original Seneca production before the brand was acquired by Acme in the early 1980s. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length, the spoon is rigged with its original treble hook and split ring hardware. Many seasoned anglers maintain that this specific dancer silhouette is the key to the lure's historical success. The metal surfaces and stamped details are exceptionally well-preserved, warranting a condition rating of 5/5. Heavy-duty construction ensures the spoon remains a durable piece of angling history.
