    Okay, here is my long shot of the day. A local auction is listing this flatware set as "stainless" flatware set. It is on-line and only through their website. I am thinking this is a sterling set. These are the only pictures available. Whatcha all think? It ends in a few hours. About 40 pieces make the set.

    Sterling would be my bet. The Prince Eugene pattern by Alvin?

    They probably saw "stainless" on the knife blades and didn't go any further.

    Lol, oh well! I guess I wasn't the only one to notice that "stainless" set. It sold for $1350.00USD :/

    GaleriaGila Hola, y'all!

    Good guess about seeing "stainless" and stopping there. I bet that's not an uncommon rookie mistake.
