Nice Coin Silver Spoon Retailed by E. P. Burt, Circa 1850, Oswego, NY
Silver : Coin Silver
Cliff Nunn - Antique Silver and Decorative Arts
20200608-02 $19.50
Offered is a nice American coin silver teaspoon bearing manufacturing marks of Hotchkiss & Schreuder, and a retailer's mark of E. P. Burt - perhaps a descendant of the famous Burt family of silversmiths, perhaps not. An Erastus Park Burt (b. 1816) worked as a jeweler and dry goods store owner in Oswego, NY in the 1850s and 60s - this is probably the E. P. Burt who marked this spoon. Mr. Burt was also the city treasurer of the city of Oswego six separate times in the 1850s and 1860s.
