<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KevinM, post: 135185, member: 1899&quot;]Wow Cheryl, Thanks! I think you have nailed the 1847 design and patent #114 and John C. Moore. It looks like that in 1851 Tiffany Company enlisted John C. Moore to make hollow-ware pieces. Based on your information I was able to find this link with a reference and images of the patent for that spoon and also another spoon I purchased with them that I have now been able to identify as a spoon with a design patent for Michael Gibney, July 10 1946 Design Patent #59.</p><p><br /></p><p>The image below is the spoon I have designed by Michael Gibney and it is monogrammed with what looks like &quot;CG&quot;, I wonder if the &quot;G&quot; stand for &quot;Gibney&quot; and is somehow related to Michael Gibney? The spoon is stamped on the back &quot;Palmer &amp; Bachelders&quot;. The last few images is a small pile of coin silver spoons I&#039;ve purchased over the last few years...</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://queenofsienna.wordpress.com/2013/09/06/the-early-spoon-design-patents-it-would-be-an-interesting-collection/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://queenofsienna.wordpress.com/2013/09/06/the-early-spoon-design-patents-it-would-be-an-interesting-collection/" rel="nofollow">https://queenofsienna.wordpress.com/2013/09/06/the-early-spoon-design-patents-it-would-be-an-interesting-collection/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]35131[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]35132[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]35133[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]35134[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]35135[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]35136[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
