Title: Spoon for ID Please Post by: jamiepearce on March 15, 2014, 05:09:17 PM Hi guys
My buddy robbyw keeps finding some old finds on the beach. Could anyone help with its age (thinking 16th century?)and maybe it's makers mark? Thinking pewter however not sure wether to or how to clean it? As always your help is appreciated! Thanks Jamie Title: Re: Spoon for ID Please Post by: Val Beechey on March 15, 2014, 05:30:25 PM Hi Jamie, some interesting reading for you. There is a section on cleaning you might be interested in.
