This one has no maker's mark that I can see. It measures 9" in length and I think it's either a large Fish Serving Fork or Asparagus Fork. The only markings read "PATENT 1855 COIN" on the reverse. Thanks! http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/132800427/IMG_0237.JPG http://tsfebay.pb...

I'm afraid this is the best I have. I took many photos of the best of the four knives. All marks are very worn.

Thanks.

I have a set of 4 knives that I believe are silver plated (not sure). They have a hollow handle and plated blade, with scrollwork on the blade. The maker's mark is on the blade amongst the scrollwork, so a little tough to read. I believe it reads in script lettering: B B & unknown * That's a &qu...

Thank you again :)

Is this solid silver? If so, can you tell the silver content?

Thanks!

Thank you so much! Can you tell the silver content? Plated? Solid?

Thank you!

I have a Wallace silver plate Korea footed shell spoon (4 1/2" not including the feet) and I'm not sure of pattern or piece type. The backside reads "(c) Wallace (R) Silver Plate Korea". It looks to me like this rests atop a small bowl because the feet do not reach to the bottom of th...

I found it. I looked through 18 of 36 pages of all the International patterns on Replacements. They call the pattern "INS300".

This piece seems very much to be solid silver. It has two tiny square hallmarks on the front at the top of the bowl. The first shows a "G", then the side view of what appears to be a person with arms extended, and then another "G". Could this stand for GABRIEL GAY? The piece has ...

I have a silver spoon that has the Korean mark shown as number 3 (Silver / Silver) in the 1910-1945 section on the following page: https://www.925-1000.com/Fkorea_01.html My question is to purity of the silver (percentage) for a solid silver (not plated) piece with that mark. I will attach photos, b...

I believe this spoon is German silver because it has a "12" stamped on the reverse, but I'm not sure. By the feel of it, it definitely feels like solid silver. The reverse is stamped with a mark that is partly missing, but ends in what looks like an "H", and is then stamped with ...

Please help identifying this 8 3/4" spoon (serving, soup?). It has the light feel of coin silver, and is marked "13 1/2" "O. JOHNSEN" and a flower symbol. Thanks! http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131224944/IMG_2680.JPG http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131224968...

Thank you for the link. I do see the hangul mark for silver. Does this mean solid silver? Would the purity be 800 (80%)?

Thanks.

These spoons are marked 800, but are they? Korean? Thanks. http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131089167/IMG_2557.JPG http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131089170/IMG_2558.JPG http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131089173/IMG_2559.JPG http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131089176/IM...

The soup spoon has a mark that appears to be Japanese, but I'm not sure. It has the feel of coin silver -- thin and light weight. Thanks. http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131089017/IMG_2536.JPG http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/131089020/IMG_2537.JPG http://tsfebay.pbworks.com/w/file/fe...

I'm pretty sure on this teaspoon, but not 100%. The hallmarks are a bit faded, but I think the marks are King George IV, S date code of 1833, Leopard head without crown, and Lion. If these are correct, that makes this sterling from London, 1833. I do not see a maker's mark and there is a curious &qu...

Thank you Phil!

The date chart I was looking at didn't go past 1916. That explains a lot.

Would the handle be Bakelite?

Thanks.

I have a 9 1/2" knife with silver plate blade and sterling silver band. The hallmarks on the band -- "CROWN LION lower-case-smooth-a" date the sterling to 1824, Sheffield. I have a few questions on this piece: - Is the date of 1824 possible given the electro plated nickel silver blade...

It is possible. Was "H.CS" used as an abbreviation for that to your knowledge?
Thanks.

Hello, I believe this is a Simpson Hall Miller piece -- the maker's mark is pretty faded, but I'm pretty sure it's the shield with "S" in the center. I cannot find the pattern anywhere. I tried Replacements, but it's not listed under the SHM patterns. I do know that SHM became part of Inte...

Thank you so much!
