Re: Need Help with Birth Record Spoon Mark

Thanks for you insight JL Doggett. I appreciate the response. So I assume you're saying these things (the malformed makers mark and backwards "N") may indicate this spoon isn't a genuine piece?

Albert Coles Fish Serving Set - Seeking Info

A recently passed family member had this set. With a little research and help of the good people on this forum I found it was Albert Coles.

Re: Seeking Info On Single Marked Sterling Ladle

Very impressed with your knowledge and eye. It makes complete sense that it's Whiting because in this same collection I got from a relative here in Massachusetts there was some Watson pieces which is from Attleboro, MA. Whiting I read was produced out of North Attleboro, MA. Again thanks so much!

Would Appreciate Help Identifying These Marks

These spoons have passed through the family recently and I am only assuming (from my research) that I'm posting in the correct section (Sheffield). However I have been way off on all my items.

Re: Need Help with Birth Record Spoon Mark

Thanks so much Oel. I agree it looks very similar yet malformed. I also notice now when looking again the "N" is backwards in word sterling. Any thoughts on that?
