Walking around the flea market today I bought this No. 5 Stanley. With no cracks or breaks at $15 I thought it was worth cleaning up.

Larry: Without a close up, looks like a fairly honest Type 12 - great find at 15 bucks - I am in the middle of a Type 11 5C refurb - - - Dave B

It is a 5C and I think it is a Type 13 not a 12. It has "Bailey" in front of the knob, a single patent date "U S Pat Apr-19-10" and "No 5" on the heel.

Looks to be a great find. At that price I would have likely bought it myself even with four other #5s in my shop.
