Long (3-1/4") downturned fiddle handles, early pointed shoulders, no mono (never engraved; no sign of mono removal); 9-3/8" in length. Condition is excellent, with the exception of very minor tipwear. Members of the Best family were among the earliest silversmiths in Cincinnati. In her book on Cincinnati silversmiths, Elizabeth D.

Coffin-end serving spoon, c1810-15 -- no shoulders, no drop, light reverse rib, feathered script mono G on front; 8-7/8" long. Condition is excellent, near mint. We bought this piece several months ago: Warner, should be a snap to find him; probably Delaware, right? Maybe Philadelphia -- maybe a stray southern maker. Well, maybe, but we haven't located him yet. Will keep looking.

American coin silver Mystery Mark #1 -- AHB Silver: Coin Silver: Serving Pieces: Pre 1837 VR stock# 886
click for details		North Hill Antiques (845) 357-4484 $100
Mustard ladle, c1810-20 -- This is a 4-3/4"-long piece with an extraordinarily long (2-1/2") fiddle; it has square shoulders and a tiny (3/4") oval bowl. Mono, as shown, is T E C in feathered script. One would think that a smith, or a partnership of smithies, with a 3-letter mark would be easy to find. Not so. We went thru the B's in Kovel and other silver books to no avail. Then we did the same with the A's, thinking it might be a 3-person partnership. Still no luck ...click for details
