The finish of the nickle looks like the final polish was done with a very fine wire wheel giving it the "satin" appearance. It is indeed an odd piece. Has anyone noticed that the toggle knobs have knurling on the sides but lack the grooves on the edges? The knobs appear to have a full contour, so it doesn't look like the grooves were machined off. It also isn't a '29 Swiss toggle.
