Fiji Souvenir Teaspoon Tea Spoon Palm Tree 4-3/4" long

I acquired this spoon from an estate sale.

This spoon is topped with a Palm tree on a beach with the word "Fiji" on it. There are no manufacture markings on the spoon.

The spoon measures 4-3/4 inches (12 cm) long X 1 inch (2.4 cm) wide (At the widest part of the spoon bowl) and weighs 10 gr.
The spoon is in good condition with a few light scratches and some tarnish around the edges and nooks and crannies. It also has a drop of glue? on the rear of the top. (See pictures).

From the Wikipedia:

Fiji:

Fiji, officially the Republic of Fiji, is an island country in Melanesia in the South Pacific Ocean about 1,100 nautical miles (2,000 km; 1,300 mi) northeast of New Zealand's North Island. Its closest neighbours are Vanuatu to the west, France's New Caledonia to the southwest, New Zealand's Kermadec to the southeast, Tonga to the east, the Samoas and France's Wallis and Futuna to the northeast, and Tuvalu to the north.

The country comprises an archipelago of more than 332 islands, of which 110 are permanently inhabited, and more than 500 islets, amounting to a total land area of circa 18,300 square kilometres (7,100 sq mi). The furthest island is Onu-i-Lau. The two major islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, account for 87% of the population of almost 860,000. The capital and largest city, Suva, is on Viti Levu. About three-quarters of Fijians live on Viti Levu's coasts, either in Suva or in smaller urban centres like Nadi (tourism) or Lautoka (sugar cane industry). Viti Levu's interior is sparsely inhabited due to its terrain.

The majority of Fiji's islands were formed through volcanic activity starting around 150 million years ago. Today, some geothermal activity still occurs on the islands of Vanua Levu and Taveuni. Fiji has been inhabited since the second millennium BC. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the Dutch and the British explored Fiji, which was a Crown Colony until 1970, this administration lasting almost a century. During World War II, thousands of Fijians volunteered to aid in Allied efforts via their attachment to the New Zealand and Australian army units. The Republic of Fiji Military Forces (RFMF) consist of land and naval units.

The spoon is stored in a baggie and will be shipped in the baggie, in a padded envelope.

Of course, as always, I combine shipping and all stated postage includes free insurance.
