Description from the seller

Zippo - US Army Great Seal Emblem - Black Matte Finish - With original USA display case
In this auction, a splendid, solid and fascinating original windproof lighter by Zippo Manufacturing Company, dedicated to the official and historic symbols of the United States armed forces: the model "US Army Great Seal Emblem" (Great Seal of the United States) on an opaque base. Unlike the classic metal versions, this model features the refined and elegant Black Matte case finish, a powder-coated coating very pleasant to the touch and fingerprint resistant. The front panel is enriched by the application of a detailed three-dimensional metal emblem with a shiny gold finish. The insignia faithfully reproduces the Great Seal of the United States of America, also used as the official coat of arms of the US Army: the American bald eagle with wings spread, clutching arrows and an olive branch in its talons, protected by the central heraldic shield and topped by a crown of stars. The color contrast between the emblem’s gold and the deep black of the case gives the piece a striking visual impact. A piece with strong collector’s character, ideal to enrich military (Militaria) and American institutional-themed collections, or as a sturdy and refined everyday accessory.
