If it was Tiffany or Christofle it's worth a lot more than that.

You’ve got a whole new RESPECT for Great-Grandma’s silver service these days, don’t you? ;)

The *second* great wad of silver I accumulated 2003-2007 was in scrap sterling silver forks and spoons. I sold over 100 lbs of sterling flatware to a refiner at about $38.50 last time silver ran up. I missed $50 pretty badly but I’m sure glad I didn’t allow my horde to drop down to $15. Back then it was often possible to buy .925 for under the implied Ag spot price. But it’s a crappy way to buy silver, IMO.

You eat with two ounce forks. You must have a hell of a wrist shot, eh?
