I am contemplating buying a bolo tie that looks to be an early version of Tommy Singer’s work. It has the “T” with the quarter moon shape which is one of his stamps according to Hougart’s book. The clasp also has the Bennett Pat Pend C 31. The C 31 seems to have been discontinued in the 60’s. Am I on the right track with the age and the stamp? Any guesstimates on price?

Also, the stone looks to be Morenci mine to me, do you agree?
Wow, pretty amazing find. I would call that Morenci Turquoise. This is very different then what we think of Tommy Singer work, which is cool. Seems good size. I have no idea what the item is selling for, I would want a price in the 200 - 300 range if I was looking.
I agree with everything said here… Early Singer mark, stabilized morenci… I would also want in the $200-$300 range for this
