Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Badger Spoon 3, 1/4oz Gold fishing spoon #12231

"BADGER SPOON" is clearly stamped into the polished gold surface of this Seneca lure, a signature detail for the model 3. This 1/4 oz (7 g) spoon measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) and features a classic teardrop shape designed for versatile casting or trolling applications. Originating from the USA, the metal body reflects light with a consistent gold brilliance that defines its appearance. The split rings at both ends are securely fastened, holding a bronzed treble hook that shows very little signs of age. Assigned product code 12231, this specimen maintains a high level of preservation, earning a 5/5 condition rating for its clean surfaces and intact hardware. The underside of the spoon provides a smooth, unblemished contrast to the stamped front, highlighting the quality craftsmanship Seneca was known for.
