Description

On bottom of mug is a circle with: Forbes Silver Co. USA - Quadruple around a second circle with an eagle head. Under this is the number: 452.

There is a removeable bowl and a holder for the shaving brush above the handle. My research places it most likely between 1894 when the Forbes Silver Co. was established and 1898 when the Quadruple designation was discontinued.

Any information about this item would be greatly appreciated! Especially the possible value, as we have not been able to find anyone who could tell us what it might be worth. We are interested in selling the item, but would like to ensure we do not under value it.
