I have had this early "T" hubcap for years, but never knew what years it was. It is brassier than what shows in the picture. Can anyone help ? It is shown with a NOS late "T" hubcap.
THANKS,
MIKE

Thank you very much ! I had no idea that it was that early. So, it is at least, 100 years old, this year.

What do the small letters mean stamped under USA mean? I've seen them W, X, etc. No answer here:

Best guess is a supplier's mfg mark, Ford used lots of outside suppliers. Or could just be a tool mark, to designate the tool pattern forming the cap, in case of damage or other issues, a poor quality cap could be traced back to the particular forming tool.
