Copy of a Spanish astrolabe. I made the molds and cast these. I got the drawings from Mel Fisher’s archeologist years ago. Authentic ones are pretty much priceless and I was always fascinated with them.
$400.00 plus $20.00 USPS shipping to the US only. It is heavy.
Payment by Paypal Friends and Family or USPS money order.

This is thought to be Champlain's astrolabe?

A pretty famous astrolabe for sure. I believe it was found in the woods of Ontario. It is a Canadian National Treasure. It is also one that hasn’t been corroded away by the effects of salt water and time.
 
My version is a rough copy of one of about a half dozen found on the Atocha. I believe they designated them by number and mine may be #6.

I’ll bet someone got their _ss chewed for losing that thing in the woods long ago, unless the person carrying it was killed by the Indians or white criminals.
