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.

This piece measures about 5 15/16 inches in length and weighs about 17 grams...

Offered is an American coin silver teaspoon made by Hotchkiss & Schreuder of Syracuse, NY, and retailed by one "E. Ferris", location unknown. I've not come across this retailer's mark before.

Condition is poor overall, as the bowl has a split (please see the pictures); otherwise the spoon is in typical antique condition. All in all a ni...
Offered is an interesting American coin silver teaspoon circa 1825-50 marked SCOTT in a primitive scalloped punch.

This spoon measures about 6 3/16 inches in length, and weighs about 19 grams. ...

In addition to a well-struck maker's mark, this has a period engraved script monogram. Condition is fairly good overal...

Offered is a nice American coin silver teaspoon marked J.BELL in a rectangular punch; this spoon is also marked with NY-style manufacturer's marks. I haven't researched this mark, but assume J. Bell was a retailer, most likely in the NE part of the country, but perhaps elsewhere. By style, this spoon should date to the 1840s or 1850s. It has legible marks and a good period engraved script monogram that appears to be "NCH". This spoon measures about 5 13/16 inches in length and weighs about 1...

This piece is not for sale, but I will offer $15 off your next order (or a coin silver teaspoon of my choice, if you prefer), if you can definitively solve the mark on this spoon, which appears to date to about the 1815-35 timeframe. The mark is PITKIN in primitive letters (with a reversed final "N") in a rectangular punch. The drop is a well-defined semi-circle. The period engraved script monogram runs lengthwise. This piece measures about 6 1/4 inches in length and weighs about 14 grams. ...
