[QUOTE="quirkygirl, post: 61250, member: 106"]Is there a difference between a toddy ladle and a punch ladle? Just curious. My ladle measures 10" with a turned wood handle, and looks to have a light gold wash inside the bowl. There are 2 marks on the silver - just below where it joins with the wood. One looks like a "13" to me .... So assuming it is 19th century German or Prussian coin silver. Did any other countries use this hallmark? I simply cannot make out the other mark at all! Looks like a moose head (but I know that can't be right :)) I appreciate any thoughts on what this other mark could be.
