Raised scales and a stylized fish head mark the polished Nickel surface of this vintage Acme spoon. Identified by product code 14692, this S180 model weighs 1/8oz (3.5g) and measures 1 1/2" (4cm), making it a refined choice for light-tackle casting or vertical jigging. The curved metal body is typical of the American-made quality that established Acme as a staple in tackle boxes, designed for durability in a compact profile. A sturdy treble hook is secured to the tail by a split ring, with a matching split ring at the head for secure line connection. This specimen maintains a 5/5 rating, with the original finish remaining bright and highly reflective, as expected from high-quality USA manufacturing. The stamped detailing on the convex side provides a textural contrast to the smooth, plated reverse, representing the classic aesthetic of mid-century metal lures.
