I've enjoyed following the OUTLOOK for a long time and have even added a comment a couple of times, but have never asked a question before. Its obvious that the regulars here have a lot of info about a lot of things and I'm wondering if anyone has come across spoons like these. "Replacements" cant ID them and I cant find them in any books and I even took them to an appraiser at a Library program. He said they were sterling and worth about 30.00 each, but thats all he could tell me. I have ten of them from a garage sale. They are small...about 4 1/2" long, and have a gold wash inside the bowl. From the marks on the bach, I think they're Swedish but thats all I know. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Toasted...now I know its Swedish and silver but I still need a way to find the date, maker and city. I probably dont need those to list on eBay, but I'm just so curious. Thanks also for the link

Thank you all...I'm saving the websites..want to look at them more thoroughly. I guess silver is not my "thing". I'm more used to glassware.

if you buy Miller's book of marks, it might help. not too expensive and has all your silver marks in it, including how to date the item using the marks.
