John Wood (NY) Coffin End Coin Coffee Spoon
Silver: Coin Silver: Flatware: Coffin-End
Old Friends 
623b $ 38
John Wood is listed by Ensko as advertising in Maiden Lane (Manhattan) in 1770, and also working in Schenectady, NY 1780-92. No death date is offered, but this 5 1/8" long coffin end spoon would have to date close to 1800, so he must have carried on after 1792. It is a fine, clean, example with a feathered script "TTS" monogram. There is an appealing diamond pattern on the shoulders at the join of the handle. This is created by beveling the edges. Apart from two pinpricks in the bowl, which... Click for details

Coin Silver Tablespoon Marked "A.P"
Silver: Coin Silver: Flatware: Coffin-End
Old Friends
587b $ 60
The "A.P" mark on this 8 5/8" long, 1.7 T. oz., coin silver tablespoon is not yielding to identification. That is frustrating, in that it is a coffin end style with some individuality. The shoulder area is chamfered on the front, resulting in a diamond-shaped design. The feathered "MW" monogram is surmounted by a block "A" suggesting this might have been part of a set. Early spoons are often found with numbers, indicating they were assigned to an individual. One possibility for the maker is... Click for details

Christopher Giffing (NY) c. 1815 Coin Teaspoon
Silver: Coin Silver: Flatware: Coffin-End
Old Friends
561b $ 25
Christopher Giffing's birth year is listed as 1789, which would have made him apprentice age during the period when the coffin end style was popular. The design of this 5 3/16" long spoon shows the coffin end influence, but it is migrating toward something else and probably dates about 1815. It has a straight tapered handle with vaguely clipped corners, but also exhibits a slightly curved shank and defined shoulders where it joins the bowl. The backside of the bowl has a vee lined drop with s... Click for details

Silver: Coin Silver: Serving Pieces
Old Friends

Coffin-end tsp by G.W.McDannold, Mt. Sterling, KY
Silver: Coin Silver: Southern
North Hill Antiques
661 $125
This spoon is a splendid anomaly -- an 1800 form that was made no earlier than 1829, the year that McDannold began as a silversmith. This is a classic coffin-end spoon, the handle tapering is a straight line from the end to the bowl. There is a drop on the bowl back and a feathered script mono J E O on the front. It is 5-1/4" long and in excellent condition, the extended bowl tips unworn.

Peter Field, Jr. (NY) Coffin End Coin Silver Tongs
Silver: Coin Silver: Flatware: Coffin-End
Old Friends
980a $ 95
This pair of coin silver tongs is 6 3/8" long, and bear the stamp for New York's Peter Field, Jr. (the P is rubbed, but the rest of the mark is distinct). They are simply constructed, with flat legs that taper toward the spoon bowl grips, and broaden substantially at the 7/8" wide arch. The arms each have an angular cut that suggests a coffin end style, dating these to the early 19th century. This is engraved in a fancy, feathered "BP" or "BT." The condition is outstanding. There are no ben... Click for details

Silver: Coin Silver: Flatware: Coffin-End

Coffin-end dessert spoon, c1810, with new attribution
Silver: Coin Silver: Flatware: Coffin-End
North Hill Antiques
272 $95
Marked PITMAN in serrated rectangle, one of the marks used by Saunders Pitman of Providence. Yet Saunders died in 1804 - he couldn't have made this spoon. Then who? His son, John K. Pitman, who was trained by his dad, worked with his pop, and simply continued to use the "family punch." Son Pitman is listed in the Flynt & Fales tome on New England silversmiths, but no mark is attributed to him. This is it! Plus, probably, all the other marks attributed to Saunders. You can figure out who ... Click for details
