Lincoln & Reed Silver
Lincoln & Reed Silver
Does any one know if Lincoln & Reed produced sterling silver or silverplate? I have a large ladle that has the Lincoln & Reed stamp but no Sterling or any other mark and I was wondering when it might have been made and could it have been produced as sterling without any mark other than the company name? Thanks.

Re: Lincoln & Reed Silver
A photo would definitely be most helpful; however, Lincoln & Reed was a partnership of silver makers in Boston during the years 1838-1848 and worked in coin silver during that period, so the lack of a sterling mark may well indicate that the piece is coin silver.
