    Had a decent day at the yard sales, picked up some sterling spoons (6 weighing 149 grams) and some small rings .925 & earring (18k). I'm trying to get the year on the spoons but can't find the letter, also can't find the maker JP. Also wondering if you recognize the pattern? Any help would be appreciated!:cigar::cigar::cigar:
    All this for 6 bucks

    Two different years. London marks for 1975, that's the A. And the lower case t is 1974. They're spring flowers, look like coffee spoons.

    JP is John Pinches, they made collector's spoons and so on. I vaguely remember these, I think they were Franklin Mint or something similar.

    Thanks a bunch, no wonder I couldn't find the year I thought much older! More for my silver hoard! :cigar::cigar::cigar:

    Very nice find, Coreya! Here's a link to London date letters that is much easier to use than most other tables out there. Plus it covers a much wider range of dates too! You click on the letter you're looking for to get a very nice (and larger) list of years in which that letter was used.
