Message:: [QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 870647, member: 8363"]The only way I have been able to find sterling silver so far is to have a large neon sign pointing at the object.  I hope to learn, though, with your help.  Since I haven't been finding hidden treasures, the best I can hope for is that they are antique.  I found five spoons today all of which are marked sterling and all the bowls have the same roundish shape. The first three have the same Reed and Barton marks and pattern and"Pat April 15, 1902". Two of them have the same initial and sterling stamp. The third has a different initial on the front, "C.D. Peacock"? stamped next to the Reed and Barton Mark, and 1905 engraved in the bottom of the handle. The fourth one is also Reed and Barton with "BUNDE & UPMEYER" stamped on it and a "Pat. May 22 1900". The fifth has "New York" engraved in the bowl of the spoon.  I don't know the mark and it has "Sterling Pat 02" under the mark. Any help will be appreciated.
