The form of these suggests that they were made about 1820 - which means they could have been made in Philadelphia or New Orleans. It's anyone's guess, and the price is right for either venue. Description as follows: downturned fiddle handles, square shoulders, prominent drop, feathered script mono T+CM (?) on front; 5-1/2" in length, good weight. Condition is very good, just the slightest touch of tipwear.
