Got out for a while Saturday and had a great day cold or not.34 degrees. Found a 1928 standing liberty quarter, 1927s wheat and a Sterling silver spoon with Washington on the handle and Mt. Vernon on the spoon. Spoon is Watson Co., Thomae Co. manufacture but can't find one exactly like it on the net and suspect it may be from the mid 1920's. Looked up hundreds of Washington spoons but nothing like this one. Not quite 4" long. Don't know if I should clean and polish this thing up or not.

I have a whole bunch of silver plated spoons that I have dug up over the years. I hope to make a pile of spoon rings out of them this year. Mine are very plain compared to what you have found.

Beautiful spoon. I have found two Sterling silver spoons, but none as nice as that.

Pick up a bottle of TARN-X. It will restore it to like new. You just dip the spoon into it or apply a little with a cotton swab and rinse it off under water. That's a beauty of a spoon. Probably would bring a handsome price as a collectors item.

I have a few SLQ's. Got a whole box full of souvenir spoons from all over the U.S. that my now deceased mother-in-law collected over the years motorhoming all over the U.S. Canada and Alaska. Going to have to dig them up and see what all is in the box. THey are all in the original packages.
