[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 744975, member: 360"]Value is whatever anyone will pay for it. Georgian silver can go for almost anything. I've picked up pieces for as little as $20.00, for as much as $600, and for every other price in between. $20.00 was a 1790s teaspoon/mustard-spoon. $100 was a table/dinner spoon from 1767. About $120 each, was what I paid for a pair of silver vinaigrettes. $80.00 was what I paid for another one. $600 was for a large silver teapot from 1800. $200 was for a pap boat. $350 was for another pap boat. Your pot could be anywhere within that range. So long as it works, and it isn't broken in some way, it'll be desirable and fetch something, though. That said, I know loads of people who will only pay weight-price for their silver. So if you're selling it, be prepared for someone to give you a ridiculous offer like $50.00 because that's all the silver-weight is worth. It sounds insane, but I do know people who do that.[/QUOTE]
