    What is this old wooden box, or was used for? The base of the box is so scared it had to see many miles and, I believe years, of stagecoach travel. Three of the original screws were beyond usable/restore-able, can they be found any where? I have had no luck in finding any screws like these. They kind of jingle like silver dimes in your hands, so I believe that some percentage of them has to be silver. Also I need a drawing or picture of what might have been the original handle so I can try to make a similar replacement. Thanks for any help.
