Spoon for a Swiss guy (the 'normal' kind)
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1479488711.jpg
Not a great photo, inscription over the lion is Helvetiorum Fidei ac Virtuti ("To the loyalty and bravery of the Swiss"). I gather it's a souvenir from Luzern, back says depose 800, which I take to mean 80% silver. Less than 5" long. I don't know who the lady is. Free to a good home. Jim |
I'll accept it and pay for shipping.

It's yours, where to?

Info PM'd.

Nice patina.

Rec'd it...looks good.
Thanks, Jim. :) |
