Nicoll Brothers "semi dress" sporran, here in the USA, $30.
Interestingly it's merely stamped "Made In Scotland" but obviously is by Nicoll Brothers.

Lovely spotted seal Evening sporran, silverplated cantle, by WE Scott, with the 1953 Patent stamp and scored back panel.
It's here in the USA, a fairly uncommon chance to get an in-country vintage seal sporran.
$65

Any thoughts on what those patches around the sides could be?

No I don't think I've ever seen such a thing.

They almost look like someone tried to patch the edge at some point. hmm...

Here's a similar sporran (with the "G" cantle) also by WE Scott, here with the scribe line across the back but lacking the 1953 Patent stamp.
I think this might be the artificial fur that they were using in the 1950s and perhaps into the 1960s.
Under $50 and here in the USA

Got one, that was having similar errors. The patches seems to be a less well made repair.
The one i have is made of sealskin. But the edge, is made of "slices of skin" glued on a backing. When i got mine, the glue had started to dissolve. Thus making a re gluing worthwhile.
- My guess is, the same thing has happened here?

Might also be real red (or 'chestnut') rabbit. The stamp reads 'real leather, made in Scotland'.
