      Your trunk was most likely made in England, but not in America. probably from around 1890 or so. The "brass"n is probably brass plated, and you can quickly check any suspected brass with a magnet. Nice find.

      You don't need help, you have great trunk. You have room for one more photo. How about one of the insides?
