<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chris klausen, post: 9888977, member: 81903&quot;]Thanks Bob for all your insight I appreciate the time you&#039;re taking. That&#039;s interesting about the lock. I have many English coffers and document boxes with those snipe hinges and they were the earliest hinges I know of. Even though this lid had 4 snipe hinges I&#039;m surprised they weren&#039;t replaced with strap hinges as they had nohope of supporting this heavy lid for very long. I know you said 1400- 1550 which is great. If you had to guess and I won&#039;t hold you to it what date in that range would you give? Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
