Hmmm. Definitely might be something there and I can see what you mean about the similarities. Thank you.

also ... would the fact that the mark is placed up near the end of the handle mean anything?? -- more likely point to a certain country vs. rule others out?

would anyone have an idea of what country this might be from based on it's style? with such a clear and bold mark it seems unusual that this would not be mentioned anywhere... tks

I think you're right...

Hi - I am wondering if anyone can recommend a book on sterling flatware patterns that lists/shows the pattern and then specifics on each individual piece - for example: Gorham Strausbourg Pattern: a dinner fork is 7.5" long and weighs 47 grams, a teaspoon is 6" long and weighs 23 grams, th...

There was a Gustave La Baume working in Halifax, NS in 1838 - listed as a jeweler/silversmith... no mark shown.

I wish there was a better - updated -- book on Canadian Silver other than Langdon's. Does anyone know of another one?

could this possibly be Provincial ? I too could not find a matching Coleman mark...

maybe it's just me... but I can't make out the markers mark on your spoon. how did you arrive at MM ? Can you see it up close? Tks

This is from a list of Maine Jewelers - don't know if it is any match:

Hartford, G. W. C.: JLY & W, Sanford, 1882

Can I ask where you found the maker James Bryan Hill of TN? What reference book or website? I can't seem to locate him. Tks

thank you for posting this spoon. any idea what the little mark on the right signifies?

NICE spoons...

William Ball maybe?

If you had to have one book for Provincial & Colonial marks - what would you suggest someone obtain ? Tks

kiwi birds ?

This mark is on a serving spoon and is very unique but I have not been able to find him... I Cook is what I think it says... Any info appreciated...

these look "white metal" to me...

just bought it. tks.

Is this book on English silver worth having ?

Marks of the London Goldsmiths and Silversmiths (c1697-1837) by Fallon

Thanks for the link and info. Did they do one style before the other ?
