I posted this on Todays finds on saturday... I'm looking for what kinda pattern this would be called an what type of dish/bowl it would be... Kinda wondering it's actual value.. I found it at a flea market for 5.00.. thanks for all the help btw I was told that the hallmarks are Gorham.. thanks to everyone that helps!!

Hey Creeper,
Your dish / bowl is Gorham. The mark to the right of Sterling, that looks like the letter A, is actually a compass or dividers. Gorham used different marks to denote the year it was made. Yours is 1908. I can't tell you the pattern name or actual price, but I would have paid the $5.00 for it. Nice find.

Thank you for your post Goldgrubber, I still can't believe I found this dish at a flea market!! when I first seen it I thought for sure it was silver plated!! I had to wipe my eyes twice to make sure I was reading sterling... right now I am waiting for a email from Hertiage Auction to email me back... They do free appraisals.. Probly be a few more days to a week before I hear anything cause they are extremely busy!!
