This coin silver fork is in the Aesthetic style, which was popular 1870 - 1890's. It is marked for the jeweler "Roehm & Wright", a Detroit Michigan jeweler and retailer. Since American silver was generally marked for silver content (sterling = 92.5% / coin = 90%) until 1870's, I'm placing this fork at the beginning of the popularity timeline. I have attributed silver purity at 90% to be on the safe side. I was not successful in identifying this pattern. Popular replacement / matching sites do not have images, if they know about it at all. Condition: Excellent giftable condition. No monogram. No reportable issues, such as flat spots, nicks, dents, pings, dings, bashes, unusual scratches, bends, monogram removals, or other blemishes. Faint surface abrasions create patina consistent with age and use. Recent thorough hand polish. Since unmarked, have thoroughly looked for any indication of base metal showing through which would indicate plating -- none noted. Acid tested to confirm silver content. Dimensions: 7.5" Long Silver weight: 48 grams Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials. Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles. On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views. I gladly accept returns, but please note I do not pay return postage unless there was a significant error in my description. The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate. If you have a question or an assumption on an item prior to purchase, please ask. I much prefer to take the time on the front end to make sure you will be satisfied with your purchase. Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
