Victorian Mizpah Silver Antique Locket
This Victorian silver Mizpah locket is an antique treasure. While Mizpah brooches are quite common and rings to a lesser extent, it's unusual to see a locket. The front is plain with a large stylized letter M with the remainder of the word superimposed. The back has an embossed floral design and the letters FD engraved in the center. Inside are two pictures of a young woman. Since these were exchanged as tokens of love, perhaps she gave this to her beau when he went off to war.

Dimensions: 2 3/8 inches long (including the bale), 1 3/8 inches wide and 1/4 inch deep.
