It's marked "manganese" on one side. The other side I can't quite make out the forth lettering of the marking, it reads "BARON" (maybe " barbon" or "bardon"). The choker bell was commonly used in the logging industry and is a great conversation starter piece for any industrial enthusiast. The item was used to pull logs decades ago.
Its wear, rusting, and pitting gives it a unique patina that adds to its antique charm. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own a piece of history.
It will make a great addition to any collection.
