Spoonin'

Went to another park. Ran into another guy there swinging an AT Pro. Nice guy and we talked awhile before back to detecting. My first hit was this spoon. It is plated and says * Bros. Hard to read. Maybe some of you might be to identify or give age.

Also 2007 Dominican republic coin. Don't know why it is in a park in Montana.

You hit it Bigfoot! Thanks so much for the ID. This is the oldest thing I have found so far. After looking I saw Rogers and Bros. I need to get a jewelers loop as these eyes are having a hard time. Thanks again.
