    I purchased this pin at a church rummage sale several years ago and it sat in my dresser drawer. It was black. I finally got out the silver polish and gave it a good cleaning. Can anyone tell me its age or manufacture? I was having difficulties photographing the clasp. I hope you can see that it is just a "loop" and not the mechanism I'm used to seeing. Thanks for looking.

      C clasp! And the needle mount is called tube hinge.
