Served up on a Silver Platter

I haven't posted in a while, but I thought finding this silver tea service for $50 was worthy of a my best finds post. 65 Troy ounces solid silver for a tidy 2600% profit. I'll take it!

Is that solid sterling?! Holy smokes! Did you sell it for scrap or resell it for antique value?

Yes, it is. I haven't sold it yet, but it's solid. Melt value around $1,300. Definitely one of my better buys lately.. Not all treasure comes from the ground! I have a small antiques shop, so I'll sell it there just above melt.

I would think that would be more than 65 ounces. Awesome find either way. I have one that is electroplated copper and its pretty dang heavy.
