The Hunt-Lenox Globe
c. 1504-1510 (disputed). The New York Public Library and most secondary sources give c. 1508 or c. 1510. A narrower c. 1504-1506 date is cited only in connection with Stefaan Missinne's contested 2013 claim that the globe was cast from his privately owned Ostrich Egg Globe. - Copper, engraved (or, per a contested theory, cast); two hollow hemispheres of a reddish copper alloy roughly 2 mm thick, joined at the equator and pierced at the north and south poles
