I went to a flea market store here. And got this silver spoon from 1939. Its silver plate. But, it sure is awesome. I looked it. And so far, I have found some other ones that sell for 30+$.
Anyone know about this one? Know specifics? Im not a spoon guy. Just thought it was cool. Its the International Exposition, or worlds fair. Says Court of Pacifica on it, as well as Golden gate Silver Plate. I cant find one like it anywhere...
Also, found this really cool looking Japanese Five Dollar.....rrrrr I mean....Pesos note from the Phillipines. Weird aint it?
And almost forgot. Found this 500 Lire too. I was gonna toss it aside. But Holly noticed it had braille on it. Turns out, its the first bi metal coin, as well as a coin that blind people can read. Didnt last long. But, is really neat.
They also have an old Booker T Washington Half Dollar Commemorative on hold for me. Its silver. And is from the 40's as I recall. He wants 25 bucks for it. Anyone know if that is a good buy??

On my days off from Metal Detecting. I do some picking as well. As coin hunting in places other than the dirt, or coin shops. Any idea about the half I mentioned or input would be great. As I dunno if I should buy it.
Also, I won a free silver coin last week off Youtube. Well, i found the mother off ALL free silver drawings!
SWEAR to GOD! No gimmics, or spam or BullSH-T!
Im still in awe that he is doing this. American Eagles flying out the butt here!

Re: Gone pickin, found this rad spoon!!

IHPT,

Looks like your spoon is from the 1939-1940 Pan American Exposition, San Francisco at least that's what it says on the ole internet, for 'Court of Pacifica'.

Its dated 1939. It has tarnish. But, its in great shape. And was cheap. So....did I make an ok find on it. Or, is it just common junk? I dunno about spoons at all.
