Last week i got myself a 1/4 ct diamond bracelet in 18 grams of 14k .(i usually find at least 3-400$ a week in gold/silver at these places).the bracelet and these 2 salts both were 4$ each.....



800 silver hallmarked (800 JM )
ground glass im thinking 1870s?
The little spoon is also 800 and came with them
any opinions?

maybe the one with the half circle cuts was for something else?

i may be wrong but dosent guntherhess collect salts?

awesome pieces!!!!!!

.800 silver, as you know, is 80% silver, often called coin silver...

JM maybe John Mitchell, unknown JM and JM James Marr halfway down in the J's...

Granted, most pieces from overseas have hallmarks with symbols for locations etc...but that's for sterling usually. not sure about coin silver. But those are the only JM's I found on all of the websites I usually hit up for ID's on the MD forums I'm on.

awesome pieces
