Cool new addition

So my friend that has a coin shop buys scrap silver and gold. Every year or so, he gathers up the sterling and breaks up what needs broken up and gets it ready for shipment to the refiners.

I’ve helped him a couple of times in the past as it’s a lot of work, plus he likes that I can advise on what pieces not to melt.

Anyway yesterday we did a batch and I found this super cool serving fork. I asked him if I could buy it for my collection and he said “we’ll talk when everything is done”

The job is finished and he says ah, you can just have it. :smiley:

So, as a super cool gift, I added this to the asheland collection:

Let’s see if anyone is familiar with the maker... it’s an earlier example, too. c.1925-30
@Weiss should like this one.
