Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Side-winder S-100, 1/3oz Gold fishing spoon #12278

Gold plating provides a high-mirror shine across the 2 1/4" (5.8 cm) body of this classic casting lure. Weighing 1/3 oz (9 g), the Acme Side-winder S-100 (Product Code 12278) features detailed fish-scale engravings and a stamped gill pattern on its convex face. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a uniform reflective surface on both its textured front and smooth, polished back. Made in the USA, the solid metal construction is complemented by a gold-tone split ring and a sharp treble hook at the trailing edge. A clean-drilled hole at the narrow end serves as the line tie, maintaining the sleek profile intended for casting and trolling applications.
