Hello All,

I was wondering if anyone on here could help me. My Great Grandfather worked for Mobil, and when I was around 10yrs old my grandfather gave me a tie clip that he gave him. It was a Mobil tie clip, gold w/ what I assumed was a ruby and a diamond stone setting. Around 2 years later it was lost when our house burned down. I have been looking everywhere to see if I could find one like it and the only thing I can find is this photo of some similar that have already been sold on e-bay.



Anyone seen anything like this?

Thanks,
Paul

There service years awards I think the ruby was for 3 and the diamond was for 10 I'm not sure if that's the correct years.

Thanks for the info Oilcanman87. I don't know how long he served but I remember the clip having 2 stones in it instead of the one as shown in the 2 clips above. If I could find one for sale I would be a happy man. I sucks to have lost a family heirloom like this but if I could have something at least like it I would be grateful. If anyone knows where I could get a hold of one of these let me know!

Keep your eyes open at flea markets and swap meets there definitely out there. Also watch Ebay you'll find one there.
