    So just represented as silver? Must have been a bargain if even the majority is silverplate. I think anything under $200, is a no-brainer on this. Excited to see what you get and hear what you paid.

    If they're OLD silverplated mustard pots and salts, the $200 would still be OK. Some of them sell for good money. The cobalt liners by themselves can be good; they always break.

    Well they all made it safe and sound, all of them had silver pouches which is nice. All but one is Victorian sterling and the one will be tested but pretty sure it is old SP, the total weight 1444 grams, 404 grams of that was just the 86 spoons. Remaining weight of the pots without liners. 1444 grams at scrap today is $1072.... Not scrapping....lol
    Just a quick check, a couple highlights

    Liberty & Co 1920 date hand hammered AC mustard
    Atkin Bros 1901
    Hillard Thomason 1894
    George Unite 1896

    Spoons are a winner either way selling between $5 and $25+ each

    It is a happy day.

    Oh what did I pay. $400 delivered with tax

    Yeah we will see, I am sure I will do well. The last Liberty and Co mustard sold for over $500 and wasn't as nice as this one. That said, I have no idea what the market is and what people are willing to pay, I am always surprised how little some stuff goes for. I made the assumption that I probably could pay for the whole lot with just two or three pieces and I am still confident of that.

    This group of sterling is delish!
    I hope you can keep the best pieces for your own collection.

    S-C-O-R-E! $1000 in scrap alone for $400 is a good deal in anyone's money. The Liberty pot might well pay for the whole thing, knowing how you Brits love Liberty pieces. Even if each pot were only worth $100, you'd still be coining money.
