    I hope the thief doesn't try to use it to buy a beer.

    Menomonee Falls is in Wisconsin, in case anyone wondered like I did.

    Anyone know when the theft occurred? Was it the only thing stolen?

    Knowing things like this might help suggest the liklihood that it might turn up and where it might turn up.

    Has it been reported to NCIC?

    Edited to Add:
    The question from @Manifest_Destiny (below) about value prompted me to contact Doug Davis at NCIC.
    Discussion highlights follow:
    ~ Do NOT know if it is applicable in this case, but Doug is fine with accepting reports on low value items, particularly if they are rare.
    ~ If anyone is interested, NCIC sends out "crime alerts" via e-mail. Anyone can sign-up for them via the homepage.

    Somebody put "Umhoefer" in an eBay saved search.

    It is an uncommon maverick circa 1890's or so but It is not unique. Typical Milwaukee diesinker die style.
