Massive Wood & Hughes Grecian Coin Soup Ladle
Silver: Coin Silver: Serving Pieces
Old Friends
774a $ 425
At 13 3/4" long, with a helmet shaped bowl that is 4 3/8" x 3 5/8" x 1", this soup ladle is massively scaled. It weighs a proportionately heavy 7.0 T. oz.

John Putnam (Buffalo, NY) Coin Silver Sugar Shovel
Silver: Coin Silver: Serving Pieces
Old Friends
766a $ 50
This coin silver sugar shovel is 6 1/4" long. It is stamped with an arm, buffalo, eagle pseudo-hallmark. Citing Don Soeffing in Silver Magazine, McGrew (in his work on pseudo hallmarks) attributes this to John Putnam of Buffalo, New York, working 1836-48. This is a clean example, with a reverse tipt end, and a script "H.E.A." monogram. There is no wear, and the form and finish are equally appealing.

Mid 19th C. Pure Coin Engraved Preserve Spoon
Silver: Coin Silver: Serving Pieces
Old Friends
758a $ 48
Stamped only "Pure Coin," this circa 1860 spoon was undoubtedly made in New England, and probably for the Boston market. It is 6 5/8" long overall, and while the size of a sugar spoon, the large (2 1/4" by 1 5/8") shell bowl with a gold wash suggests this was for preserves or jelly. The piece has a very sharply defined, angular end, and is densely and skillfully engraved. The reverse is monogrammed "E.E.W." in script. An unassuming piece, the measure of refinement in this nonetheless clearly... Click for details

You expect a Philadelphia spoon to be a cut above and this 8 7/8" example is no exception. It is beautiful condition with no bends, excessive wear or bends. It weighs 2.1 Tr Oz which makes it less than recent melt value. It bothers me that a 175 year old piece of Americana virtually worthless. It is marked "J. Curry", "Phila" and an eagles head.

Mid 19th Century Coin Silver Jelly or Preserve Spoon
Silver: Coin Silver: Serving Pieces
Old Friends
704a SOLD
This 7 1/8" long, medium weight, jelly or preserve spoon tells its own story, but only in part. The flat end handle engraved with ivy and wriggle work detailing, the beveled stem, and the lobed bowl all reflect a circa 1860 style of American coin silver. As this is only marked "Coin" and "10," however, the exact maker and locale for its production is uncertain.
