Weighting exactly 3/16oz (6g), this Italian-made spinner features the iconic shaft-through-blade design that collectors look for in vintage Panther Martin lures. This specific Panther Martin 6, identified by Product Code 4539, showcases a detailed Rainbow Trout pattern with a bold red edge transitioning into yellow and green segments accented by dark vertical stripes. The reverse side of the blade is finished in polished gold, offering a distinct visual contrast during rotation. At 2" (5cm) in length, the lure is built around a teardrop-shaped body finished in a two-tone metallic teal and silver. Stamped into the metal of the blade are the size '6', the brand name, and its 'Italy' origin. A single brass bead serves as a spacer between the blade and the weighted body on the central wire. Maintaining a 5/5 condition, the specimen exhibits crisp paint and clean hardware. The bronze-finished treble hook remains sharp and is securely looped to the wire shaft.
