Vintage Mepps Comet 2 Mino (70-s), 3/16oz Silver spinning lure #17483

The silver-plated blade on this specimen carries the iconic "French Patent" stamping, highlighting its mid-70s heritage. Weighing 3/16 oz (6 g), this Mepps Comet 2 Mino, identified by product code 17483, features components manufactured in France and assembled in the USA. The silver color theme is consistent throughout, from the polished metal blade to the scale-patterned soft plastic minnow body. Measuring approximately 3 inches (7.6 cm) in length, the assembly includes a brass-ribbed weight and a trailer designed to mimic a small baitfish. Its condition is a solid 4/5, showing light indicators of its vintage age while maintaining the integrity of the flexible tail and the sharp points of the hook system. The metallic finish on the blade remains clear, allowing the stamped brand details to be easily read against the reflective surface.
