<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 74406, member: 36"]A few years back I went to a synagogue rummage sale and looked at the silver, quote unquote, table. They had bags of silverplated flatware for $3 each. Except that some of it wasn't plate. It looked funny - punch decorations. I couldn't read the markings on the back, but again it didn't look like plated stuff. Bought every piece I could see and took it home. Latvian mid-19th century silver. Oops. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> Went back the next day to double-check and found more pieces in another bag. It all went in one lot on Ebay for a fair bit more than I paid for it....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
