Saturdays Sterling Score!

Saturday's Sterling Score!

As I rolled up to the second sale of the day I noticed some of my competition was already there, So I walked up and seen a lady I know putting a little box of jewelry in her pile of stuff, Crap! as I looked around I seen right in front of me a plastic container that said "silver" $10.00 dollars,so I looked and the first piece I brought out said Sterling and then the second one also, it appeared to be a set and the container felt heavy, Right on! so I immediately paid! I hit a couple more sales finding a couple sterling necklaces and a bracelet for $2.00 once I got home I layed everything out and I am stoked, this is my biggest silver score yet, almost all the pieces say sterling with a makers mark of a capitol D that I believe stands for Dulin & Martin, 6 of the knives are in a cloth carrier that has a label that says Dulin & Martin,Washington, D.C. A couple of the spoons say Gorham, I have not researched them yet. Thanks for looking!...........Scott

Nice. I missed out on a 73 pc. set of Towle sterling flatware yesterday because I wasn't up to par on what patterns sell for the most by that maker. By the time I did a quick search, it was sold. King Richard was the pattern. It went for $1800.

Thanks guys for all the kind replies! I always check the flatware, almost always it is plated, with sometimes picking up a piece or two of Sterling, This time I got lucky! Thanks for looking & Good Luck!..........Scott.

Thanks for the kind reply! Hopefully next time you make that score! I really don't know the value or what the pattern is on this, I did a search on the names and came up with only a store name that sold fine china, ceramics and silver sets, from the teens to the thirties.I am not even sure if Dulin & Martin are even the makers, I will post a better picture of one of the pieces so everyone can see the pattern and hopefully the makers mark. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for looking!..........Scott
