Marc hello!

Unfortunately, I don't have the booklet by Gosseau. Is there a mention in it that these blades served as valuables used for exchange (currency)?

Judging by the fact that these blades are quite common, it is quite possible that this is true.

In the topic:

we discussed brass nails for upholstery. The item can be dated to the end of the 19th - beginning of the 20th century.

Respectfully,
Yuri
