Help to identify a bottle opener.
« on: January 04, 2014, 10:42:00 pm »
I have a golden color bottle opener shaped like and eagle. Found it in our house remodel. I'm having trouble finding information about it. It has a hallmark on it, also has 24-81 imprinted in it as well. The hallmark is VM, between the V and M is a music note or flag (hard to tell). Any information on where to find more information will be appreciated.

A picture would be necessary.

Gary,

Did a Google Image search for "Eagle Bottle Opener". Several were similar to yours, but had different handles/shafts. Did find this one:
