This is a very nice antique solid sterling silver souvenir spoon with a mining theme, probably from about 1910 or so. It is not from any place in particular, and has not been engraved.
It is about 5-1/2″ long, and heavy for its size, weight below.
The bowl is embossed with a scene of a miner’s pack mule or donkey, loaded with mining equipment.
It has a really great detailed figural miner or prospector handle, front and back. He is holding a large rock and his pick.
No engraving.
It is marked with the word “Sterling” in kind of an unusual place, right below the miner’s feet, on the back.
Condition: Good. It has a little light surface scratching, and may have a bit of surface tarnish here and there. It has a few very tiny rim nicks.
Weight: It weighs a hefty 23.5 grams or .83 ounce (.75 Troy oz.) on my digital point scale.
