Help with fork ID. Possibly Solomon Royes?
Posted: Thu Nov 16, 2017 7:46 pm
Hey, I've got this fork here, and I think my id is correct of it being Sterling, London, 1821, (I don't know who the person is), and SR for Solomon Royes.
I think the cursive F at the top is just the mark of who ever owned the fork?
The only reason I doubt my ID is because my friend didn't think it was as old as 1821 because of the arrow detail on the handle of the fork, but I saw this post: http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic ... yes#p88071, which has the same detail on the handle, so i'd wager that it's accurate.
Also, does anyone know what the asterisk/star under SR is?
Thanks
