The Tin and Copper Eggs are a pair of pristine dragon eggs, one of tin and one of copper, that an elven princess of the Pretty Women strand carried in a chest to enter the Atlantean realm then in gestation. From them was born the bronze dragon Bronzo.

History
- On the voyage the spectral pirate Blackbeard stole them. On his skeleton ship they rested on a scale beside him in perfect balance, among sixty-seven more eggs, gray and worn.
- The group took them back in the battle of Kraken’s Cove (1784 A.D.A.), where Casimiro, Magda and the hired killer Juan Jerez fell.
- In Atlantia they became the matter of Bronzo, a bronze dragon shaped by Atlantean mystical alchemy and raised by Krisina “in the body of Horatiel”. The Cakravartin declared them vital “to finish guarding these borders” of the resurgent realm.
- In 1888 A.D.A. this same Bronzo is the Cakravartin’s wheel-dragon and the guide of the Deep Ones.
Not to be confused with

- The gold and silver eggs from Karina’s chest that reappear in the gesta (campaign-cycle) of the Deep Ones; see The Dragon Eggs.
