Can anyone identify this lighter? My nephew found it in his grandmother's attic and she gave it to him. It is an old Colibri. It is wrapped in what appears to be leather and it is a butane lighter. It has the number 652 on the side of it. The lighter is well worn. Does anyone know what this lighter is, and how much it is worth? My nephew is planning on using it unless it is worht something. I will post a couple other photos of it as well.

Thanks,

Here's a link to copy and paste or you might just type antique lighters in Google.

Click on the 'C' then Colibri.

This does look like the 1955 Colibri.
