My Best Catch Ever

Hi Ariel, The koummya to President Roosevelt was presented by Sultan Suli Mohammed. We both noted the second dagger by T'hami El Glaoui at the same time. I ended up with it. I spoke to the seller he has owned it for 15 years or so. Interestingly, he found and contacted Relatives of General Wilson. He asked if they would be interested, they declined saying they Kept the other one with pearls. Seems T'hami also gave him other baubles and an Arabian Horse. So I'm trying to find out what his duties were in Morocco and why these presentations took place. E Bay photos were oversize. Steve
