Each is Completely Hand Made - Would have been Produced by a Local Town - City Silversmith. Each has a Finley Hand Engraved Belt & Buckle Around the Mid Section. They also Have Classic Engine Turned Style Decoration. They Have No Monograms. Note that 5 of them are Numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 & 6 - One is Not Numbered & There is No Number 5 - Most Likely was Part of a Larger Set at One Time. Numbers were Most Likely for Seating Arrangements Purposes. They have No Maker or Silver Marks but Each has been Professionally Tested and is Absolutely Guaranteed to be Solid Coin Silver. The Set is in Excellent All Original Condition - Look Like They Have Hardly Ever Been Used. They Come with Their Original Presentation Case but Note that Exterior is in Poor Condition - Damaged Hinge Etc.

The Early American Silver Makers adopted the Coin Silver Standard up until around the Late 1860s to Early 1870s at which point in time they started to adopt the Sterling Silver Standard. American Coin Silver has a 90% - 900/1000 Silver Content, and Sterling Silver has a slightly higher 92.5% - 925/1000 Silver Content. Pure Silver is 99.9% Pure - That is to say that it Contains No Other Alloy Metals. Some of Pieces of American Coin Silver items that were produced were marked "Coin" - but it should be Noted that many of the other pieces that were produced during that period Have No Silver Mark At All. Once the Sterling Standard took hold the vast majority of the Silver Pieces that were produced by Numerous American Silver Companies were marked "Sterling". All of the Unmarked American Silver Pieces that I Sell on Chairish are Professionally Tested and are Absolutely Guaranteed to Have the Silver Content as Stated.
