<p>[QUOTE=&quot;evelyb30, post: 4421879, member: 36&quot;]#4 was dead easy for me; there&#039;s a clear silver mark in the second picture and they&#039;re not weighted.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>You&#039;d have liked the pieces I scored on Wednesday, and then unloaded half before I ever got home.&nbsp; Everyone had walked by I guess, including one guy I know is a dealer.&nbsp; It was a silver-plated gravy boat and ladle ... at least the gravy boat was plated and obviously so.&nbsp; I asked to see it anyway; the ladle was sterling and the pair were $5. Dropped the gravy bowl at my next stop, a charity thrift, and kept the piece I wanted.&nbsp; Left behind a Victorian silver-deposit pitcher.&nbsp; The glass was fine, but the silver was damaged (as in missing in spots) and I could neither sell it nor scrap it.&nbsp; Another dealer, and not a nice one, scooped it as I was paying for the piece I&#039;d bagged.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
