Here's todays find found in a small patch of grass behind a business by my house.

It's a Rogers Bros silver plated spoon (circa 1847 - 1897) in Newport stlye.

Haven't found the exact date this style was made in yet but I know it's between the above because in 1898 they became part of the International silver co. and from then on, all of their flatware was marked accordingly.

I like the Detail on it. The best part of those spoons are when you really get one like yours with that nice workmanship. Good job Lonewolf.

I love Beavis and Butthead. I had two friends in highschool that could be them in real life. One of them turned out to be a bank auditor and the other one went to prison. So, I guess that means you have a 50/50 chance. At what? JIM

Nice Find. Don't hold me to it but I would say the spoon is worth $25-$35.
