Tiniest spoon I have ever seen

[thrillathahunt]

TC and me detected an old Victorian era house today and I found this very tiny sterling silver spoon. Albert thinks it's an old medicine spoon. It's only 2" long, and marked STERLING with a lion hallmark on the back. Any ideas?

Isn't it cute?

I thought 'snuff' or 'apothecary' spoons were more elliptical.So much for what I know.Neat find

 

[thrillathahunt]

The consensus is salt spoon, so I will accept that. Although I suppose it could be used as a

snuff spoon, or for other purposes. Thank you all for your replies, now green check time!

Nice antique salt spoon. Last one I found came from a yardsale for .50 and it sold for a little over $10.00 on Ebay.
