I am trying to obtain information on a silverplated "corn" dish from the above manufacturer. I have heard that this manufacturer either went out of business or stopped making silver pieces in the early 1900's. Anyone know any more than this. I have tried search engines but come up empty handed.

The photo of your mark is very fuzzy. Could you either repost a better picture, or tell us what the lettering/numbering says?

I couldn't get a very good pic so here is a description. On the bottom there is a circle on the outside of the circle it says quadruple plate on the inside it says P.A. Coon Silver Mfg.Co. with a crescent moon in the center of the circle. Then underneath that about a 1/4" is "355".
Thank you for your response.

According to an internet search, your company advertised in the Syracuse Herald newspaper, New York, in April and May 1906.
