I bought a lot of silver plate and these were in the box. I have not been able to identify these. They are marked "AKERLY & CO". There are come other marks before the name but I am unable to make them out. Can anyone help? I'm guessing coin silver?
Richard C. Akerly (1810-1895), longtime jeweler and watchmaker in Chicago and NYC. R. C. AKERLY & Co with James W. Robertson and Franklin Horton, 1850-1854 at 150 Bowery and, by 1853, 41 Fulton Street.
