AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Thank you for checking this out! The warm gold-tone finish, decorative corner engravings, and clearly numbered "No. 0466" marking stand out right away. I always enjoy seeing early numbered Zippo editions like this, especially when the original presentation case and limited-edition plaques are still present. Complete sets tend to attract attention because they display beautifully and carry a stronger collector appeal. Please see the details below!

[Appearance]

This Zippo lighter features a polished gold-tone finish with decorative engraved corner motifs and commemorative lettering on the front. The inscription includes "The only zippo in the world.", "Made in U.S.A. Since 1932", and the individual serial number No. 0466.

The lighter comes with its original blue velvet presentation case and limited-edition inserts, including the numbered collector plaques shown in the photos.

Visible signs of age and use can be found throughout the lighter. There are surface scratches, edge wear, small finish losses, and plating wear around several corners and edges. Despite these honest signs of use, the engravings remain crisp and easy to read, and the overall presentation still has an attractive vintage character.

The gold-tone finish has developed a pleasant aged appearance that many collectors appreciate.

The hinge appears intact, and the body remains well aligned.

Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.
