Offered is a pair of early 19th Century American coin silver teaspoons by David B. Cumming of Philadelphia, working there circa 1810-15. These teaspoons are transitional fiddle in form, without shoulders. They measure about 5 7/16 inches in length, and weigh a total of about 30 grams. Condition is fair at best in that they have unfortunately been buffed, and have therefore lost their monograms and patina, and have rubbed maker's marks...

Offered is a very good American coin silver teaspoon by the little-known 1840s partnership of Jones & Wilson, working in St. Louis. This piece has a period engraved owner's name ("C. L. Stevens") in lovely script, and a clear maker's mark as well as a city mark. This spoon measures about 6 3/8 inches in length and weighs about 20 grams. Condition is fairly good overall, with some bumps to the bowl but no splits or repairs. Please take a look at all of the pictures...

Offered is a rough but scarce American coin silver teaspoon bearing the mark of Alton, Illinois jeweler and watchmaker Edward H. Goulding, whose biographical information appears below. This is a rare mark, and the only example I've seen of it. This spoon should date to the 1852-70 period, and probably 1865 or earlier. It features a clear strike of Goulding's mark and a period engraved script monogram. This piece measures about 6 inches in length and weighs about 14 grams...

Offered is a good American coin silver teaspoon by John Shaw & Co. of St. Louis; John Shaw used this company mark in approximately the 1842-52 period, and later this mark was cut down to remove the "& Co." portion. As such, this spoon should date to that 1842-52 period. It is marked with a clear maker's mark and a period engraved script "MES" monogram. This piece measures about 5 15/16 inches in length and weighs about 17 grams...

Offered is an interesting set of four 19th Century Scottish sterling silver tea or coffee spoons embossed or decorated with what appears to be a grape vine motif, fully hallmarked for a maker of T&Co., and Glasgow, 1891. These spoons measure about 4 7/8 inches in length, and the set weighs about 57 grams altogether. Condition ranges from good to fair, with some two spoons in basically good condition with modest wear, and two having bowls out of round or slightly dimpled...

Offered is a lovely American coin silver cream or sauce ladle by Joseph Sewall Porter (1783-1862), working in Utica, NY circa 1803-62. This ladle probably dates to about 1820-35, by style. It has sugarloaf shoulders common to Utica silver, and a period engraved script monogram of "DB". It also has a rubbed but legible maker's mark and a later (but 19th Century) engraved date of 1806 to the reverse. This piece measures about 5 3/4 inches in length and weighs about 19 grams...

Offered is a beat-up late 18th or early 19th Century American coin silver teaspoon by noted Philadelphia silversmith Joseph Lownes (1758-1820). This piece has a rubbed but legible maker's mark and a worn period engraved script monogram. It measures about 5 5/16 inches in length and weighs about 13 grams. Condition is fair at best, with some dings and tip wear, and a fair amount of surface wear. There are no splits or repairs noted...

Offered is a nice example of a coin silver spoon evidently made as a toy or for the use of a small child, measuring 4 3/16 inches in length and weighing about 7 grams. Ordinarily I might assume this is simply a spoon form (as opposed to ladle form) master salt spoon, but with the engraving of the name "Bertie" (a diminutive of "Robert"), I have to assume it was made for a child. This piece has no maker's mark, but by style it should date to the 1825-50 period. It has some wear and small dings...

Offered is a beat-up but quite scarce example of a Philadelphia coin silver teaspoon, circa 1810-14, bearing the maker's mark of Thomas W. Harper (the manufacturer) and Joseph Anthony & Son (the retailer); silver with any of Mr. Anthony's marks is uncommon, let alone with Harper's mark also. This piece has worn but legible marks and a period engraved script monogram. It measures about 5 5/8 inches in length and weighs about 13 grams. Condition is poor overall, with a lot of surface wear and s...

Offered is a nice shellback coin silver silver spoon marked with probably New York manufacturing marks, and the name of the retailer, one J.K. McDonald. This person was probably in New York, but I'm not completely sure. This spoon has legible marks and a period engraved monogram. It measures about 6 1/8 inches in length and weighs about 19 grams. Condition is fair, with a fair amount of wear and some small dings here and there, but no splits or repairs. All in all a nice coin silver spoon!

Offered is a city-marked New Hampshire coin silver spoon by Stanford Hovey and Amos Parker, working as Hovey, Parker & Co. circa 1850-52 in Manchester, NH. This spoon has good marks and a period engraved owner's name on the handle, which is unusual enough to likely be traceable. This spoon measures about 5 7/8 inches in length and weighs about 13 grams. Condition is fair, with some dings and bends but no splits or repairs. All in all an interesting piece with a relatively scarce maker's mark...

Offered is a nice American coin silver spoon circa 1815, give or take five years, with a maker's mark of "O.&C." and a period engraved script monogram of "UT". The maker is unknown, at least to me - while Ott & Cluff of Virginia has been suggested, this spoon feels to be a bit late for that partnership. As such, it is a bit of a mystery! This piece measures about 5 1/2 inches in length and weighs about 12 grams. Condition is fair overall, with some small waves in the handle and a few minor d...

Offered is a very nice coin silver teaspoon by little-known maker Frederick Smith, working as a silversmith and jeweler from about 1833-45, and as a case maker and pocket-book maker thereafter. This spoon has a rubbed but legible maker's mark for Smith, as well as a period engraved script monogram. It measures about 5 7/8 inches in length and weighs about 11 grams. Condition is fairly good overall, with a slight wave in the handle and a small ding in the bowl, but no splits or repairs. All i...

Offered is a lovely and earlier coin silver spoon by Philadelphia silversmith, clockmaker and jeweler Nicholas LeHuray, Jr. (b. 1797 - d. 1846), working circa 1821-46 in that city. Nicholas LeHuray, Jr. made or sold some very fine flatware, and occasional hollowware. His work is not all that scarce but is usually very desirable. Check my other listings for a slightly later and larger set of four teaspoons by LeHuray, Jr. This teaspoon is from the 1820s, on the early end of Nicholas' care...

Offered is a nice 19th Century American coin silver sugar shell by unknown silversmith or jeweler H. J. Low, possibly a man named Henry J. Low purportedly working in Fitchburg, Massachusetts in the mid-19th Century. I haven't found a verifiable reference for this mark, which is H.J.LOW in a rectangular punch. It doesn't appear that this Mr. Low is related to the much more famous Low family of silversmiths/jewelers in Boston in the same era - at least not closely. This piece has a good clear m...
