Good Philadelphia Coin Silver Spoon by R&W Wilson, marked STANDARD

Offered is a good American coin silver teaspoon by the noted partnership of Robert and William Wilson, working in Philadelphia between about 1825 and the 1850s. This spoon has one of their maker's marks and a mark of STANDARD denoting the fineness (about 0.900, most likely). It also features a period engraved script monogram of what appears to be "AY". This piece probably dates to the late 1820s or the 1830s, based on subtle stylistic clues. It measures about 6 1/4 inches in length and weighs a very good 22 grams. Condition overall is very good, with a few small bumps to the bowl but only modest wear and no splits or repairs. All in all fine piece for display or daily use!
