Hello All,
Hit a yard that I found 7 silver coins in a couple weeks ago. Finally got back to finish it up. Found 5 wheaties and this Delta Lines ship spoon. I was really excited to see it, when I was expecting a coin. The history was interesting to me. The cruise line started after WWII when they bought 3 cargo ships and transformed them into cruise ships to run from the US to South America. This spoon represents one of those three ships.
Thanks for looking,
Bunker

I use a very soft cloth and a silver creme called PEEK, works
great on delicate plated items and on very old sterling.
Once again, great find man! :notworthy:
