Rare Augusta, Georgia Coin Silver Tablespoon by Thomas W. Freeman

Offered is a very fine and scarce Augusta, Georgia coin silver table spoon by jeweler and watchmaker Thomas W. Freeman (working 1836-53), whose mark is not commonly found. This piece has a good clear maker's mark or retailer's mark of T.W.FREEMAN in a rectangular punch, along with a set of pseudo-hallmarks. There is no monogram, and no sign of erasure. This well-made piece measures about 8 7/8 inches in length and weighs a good 53 grams. Condition is good overall, with modest tip wear and a few shallow bumps in the bowl, but no splits or repairs. Please click on the first picture to see all of the pictures. All in all a nice Southern coin silver spoon from the Peach State!
