Q: This heavy object belonged to my uncle. It’s 10 1/4 inches long and quite heavy. There is an eagle and shield at the top and an inscription on each side. One side reads “23rd Annual Banquet of the Ohio Society of New York, Dec. 16, 1908.” The other side says “In honor of William Howard Taft, President-elect of the United States.” What is it and what is it worth?
