Silver Spoon 2

Postby FFlorin » Wed Jul 11, 2012 3:39 pm

Hello to all,
i am new around here and i wondered if you can help me with 3 spoons that i inherited from my old grandpa.
I found some info about them but i saw that around here are people that i think will help me know more.

Thank you in advance.

Hell, not sure whether this is silver. The eagle and the 12 look like old German marks, but I have also seen them on objects made by Juerst from German silver. The eagle here looks a lot like that Juerst eagle... Still I might be wrong. Would like to have the opinion of other members. Theo, take over ! Best wishes, Bahner

The spoon looks older than the other 2 ... also i don't know exactly if it is silver but i know that is German after some info i searched and also it does not smell(silver does not have smell).
I am happy that you helped me with the other 2 spoons, and now i know more about them.
Thank you.

Dear Bahner,
I have some images of the eagle from Jürst and Henninger - but in this case it is
a late Potsdam mark - like this

there is an other Greinert mark
