Check the listing for details. VINTAGE BALANCE SCALE PIECE-50G - FROM GERMANY. Condition: Used. Listed at 14.99 USD. VINTAGE PIECE TO A BALANCE SCALE. THIS IS JUST THE TOP METAL BALANCE "BEAM" WITH A HOOK TO HANG IT, THE MAIN BEAM ACROSS WHICH HAS "GERMANY" - 50g - AND THE NO. 18 (WHICH IS UNDER THE PIVOTING PART AND HARD TO GET A PICTURE OF) STAMPED ON THE LONGEST PART, THE UPRIGHT PART OF THE MAIN CROSS BEAM WITH THE ARROW AT TOP, THE PIECE THAT HAS THE ABILITY TO MOVE WHICH IS 2 METAL PIECES SEPERATED BY METAL SEPERATORS TO ALLOW MOVEMENT, AND THE STRING REMNANTS WHICH IF THIS WAS COMPLETE WOULD HOLD THE TRAYS THAT WOULD HOLD THE ITEM BEING WEIGHED AND THE BALANCE WEIGHT -- THESE ARE NOT WITH THIS -THIS IS ONLY THE PART SHOWN IN THE PICTURES!!! THIS WOULD BE GREAT FOR SOMEONE TO ADD TO A COLLECTION OF SCALES, A COLLECTION OF GERMANY ITEMS, OR TO FIND THE PARTS TO PUT IT BACK TOGETHER TO USE AS IT WAS INTENDED. MAIN BEAM IS APPROX. 7". I THINK THIS IS BRASS SINCE A MAGNET DOESN'T STICK TO THE MAIN PARTS BUT DOES STICK TO THE PIVOT BOLT AND THE STRING CONNECTORS AND THERE IS SHINY YELLOW WHEN SCRATCHED. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.
