Heavy coin silver sugar tongs, 6 and 3/8 inches long by John and James Cox of NYC, working 1817-53. Because of their weight and style I would place them at 1850-3. They have a patented design I have not been able to identify, which is similar to the "Empire" design of John Polhamus of NYC. Marked "J & I COX N.Y. PATEN" in a rectangle on one interior side and with what appears to be a patent registration mark in a diamond design on the other.

Coin silver tea set by William Gale of NYC c. 1816-1827. Gale worked c. 1816-1866 but always with another or others after 1827 and with a joint mark as far as I can determine, thus the attribution to 1816-27. The pieces are engraved on the right hand side with a "W' in script, but the monograms are quite rubbed. The base of the teapot has an old repair with silver solder which is barely noticeable. A very nice set.
