Description
A good example of an antique Surveyor's compass. The compass is cased in brass with a silvered dial. It has a folding sighting vane and pinhole which open up at either end of the compass. There is a threaded mount in the base where it would have once fixed to a tripod or stand.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
