Silver forks and spoons

Silver forks, spoons and bracelet

A friend of mine told me he found a few silver utensils on the ground at the front of his property and wanted me to come check to see if there were more. And of course I was happy to help him out! I only had about half an hour to look but in that time I found three silver forks, three silver spoons and a silver bracelet all in a very small area! Not sure why so many utensils in one spot but can't wait to go back and spend some time there. Thanks for looking and hope everyone has a great weekend.

Now that's a nice score of silver, any maker's marks on the utensils?

That would be a fun hunt. Even in a small area.

Thanks pepperj. Yes but unfortunately I left them with the owners. I do remember one had patent date 1910 I think and another 1890 something. Ill see them this week and get the makers info.

Yes it was a fun but short hunt. Planning on going back and thoroughly hunting that spot. Thanks for your reply!

Yea Sutphin funny how several were twisted and yet some were in perfect shape! I'm happy digging them no matter what the condition! A big piece of silver like that really rings up nice! Thanks for your reply.
