Stenzel Regent #2 Gold Plated Fly Reel w/ Spare Spool

Stenzel Regent #2 Gold Plated Fly Reel w/ Spare SpoolFor sale here is a beautiful 24k gold plated and highly polished Stenzel Regent No. 02 fly reel. Made in Germany and very rarely do they show up on the market. Comes with two spools, one with photorealistic engraving and standard arbor and the other with a large arbor ported design. Both have a crank handle and counterbalance made of fossilized mammoth ivory. 2 7 8" diameter. 3 4" spool width. Left hand retrieve. Palmable rim. Adjustable disc drag
