      You have a lovely old dome top trunk dated around 1900. It is not hammered copper but rather rusty tin that gives the appearance of copper. The picture is a little blurry but it appears the trunk has some nice hardware on it. It is a nice example of its type from that era and could be beautiful with some restoration if the tin has not rusted through. Hope this helps...
