Title: cup saucer and spoon in one go Post by: mickycoin "mick" on November 04, 2009, 04:23:18 PM hi all when i first found this piece i thought it was the stud from an item of clouthing, it measures about 3/8 of an inch in dia , i think its silver but cannot find a hall mark, where they would put it anyway would be a miracle,its about 1/4 inch thick.. i had a nice surprise when i looked again with a glass,as the mince pies are not what they used to be, would imagine its from a charm bracelet?? ;D ;D mick

Title: Re: cup saucer and spoon in one go Post by: Stig(The) on November 04, 2009, 07:48:33 PM Is that a small hole in the handle of the spoon i can see? If it is then thats where the little circular loop would have been which then would of attached to the bracelet.
