Description

Came across this at a good will store; of all places. I don't know much about it. So am looking to find out the follow :

Maker?

Country of Origin?

Time Period which it was made?

Approximate Value?

Should I shine it back to original condition or is it worth more as is?

 

It weighs between 8 to 10 lbs.

Of the research I was able to find, I do believe one of the makers marks indicates it to be 92.5% silver. I do not know the country of origin but, based on other makers marks I do not believe it is from the United States.

I'm afraid this is just silver plated, the markings are meant to resemble Sterling silver hallmarks. The marking is American, used by the E.G. Webster & Son Company which operated from 1886-1960. If the plating is good we see platters like this sell for less than $50.00 at auction.
