What should I look for???

[oldranger]

On Spoons Ive found to tell if they are silver ??

I found 2 this week..not that odd except I found
them within a few feet of each other about 10
feet behind 2nd base on a ball field???

Like someone said ANYTHING can be ANYWHERE!!!

What should you look for? I'd say a well fed second baseman.

Now that's funny!

You should be able to tell the difference between silver and stainless by look and the way the metal tarnishes/oxidizes. Also, I would imagine there would be a stamp on the underside of the handle that says silver or whatever it is. I hope they are silver. I've found lots of spoons, forks, and knives over the years and it's always a great feeling to see that it's silver. Oh yeah, stainless usually id's as nickel and silver id's as half or dollar.Happy Hunting!

A silver spoon looks really shiny compared to a silver plated spoon when cleaned. If silver plated, then it will mostly likely be stated on the back.

Sometimes a a spoon will just have a name on the back, usually the manufacturer. You can look online for the name it will tell you when it was made and if it is silver or silver plated.

If you have a spoon that says "Sterling Silver" then you have a silver spoon and should hang on to it.

Maybe the second baseman was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Wayne
