These four, matching, c. 1835, coin silver teaspoons are stamped "H.A. & E.G. Kelley," for the brothers Henry and Edward, located in Nantucket, Massachusetts. They are 6" long, weigh exactly 2.0 T. oz., so .5 T. oz. each, and have a cursive feathered "E" monogram. They are in excellent condition. There were various pebbling issues with the bowls, which have all been remedied by a professional silversmith, who also lightly buffed them. The bowl shapes are relatively long and pointed, and show no tip wear. One handle was crimped, and this has been straightened, although the spot where the crease was is visible.
