Coin Silver - Copeland & Beiderhase

Post by gadroon »

Members,
Mark is from a coin silver mug ca.1850
Image
It also has the maker's mark "R. Copeland" and is stamped "New York"
Does anyone have any info on Copeland & Beiderhase. I found a Fuchs & Beiderhase, but they worked ca.1900.
Thanks, Gadroon

Robert Copeland and Bernard D. Beiderhase, New York City, had a partnership that lasted from about 1851 through 1856.

Regards,
Pat.

Copeland went on to work as a silversmith in Philadelphia, where he was listed as such in the 1880 census, age 65. Neither man, nor the partnership, is recorded in Darling's New York.

Beiderhase a silversmith who immigrated at age 23 from Hanover in 1848 is listed as a chaser a few doors down from Copeland in the 1857-58 New York City Directory. By 1870, Beiderhase had turned to the insurance business.

Copeland who was born about 1818 in New York is listed in the 1900 U S Federal Census for New York, New York as a silversmith.
