Thanks everyone. The person I bought the set from said it has been in her family since the 40's so I will assume they are older original pieces and enjoy them :) Thanks again.
Thank you for replying. I was alittle worried it might be counterfeit. Does that ever happen with sterling? Also thank you for welcoming me. I'm finding silver collecting to be addicting.
Hello, I'm new at this so I hope this is not a dumb question. I have some Towle "Old Master" sterling flatware which does not have the Towle hallmark. It is marked "TOWLE STERLING PAT" but there is no hallmark. Does anyone know why? Thank you.
