Silver Sunday
It's Silver Sunday time. I have some coin silver spoons that belonged to my Highland County, Virginia grandparents. I don't know anything specific about them other than in the early 1960's, my grandmother wanted someone in the family to keep them. Sterling Silver is 92.5% silver whereas coin silver has 90% silver. These are made in a very simple Federal style. They do have hallmarks on the reverse side, but I have not researched them. I don't know why there are five and not six or eight.
