Excellent find! I aways check the hallmarks when I go to thrift shops. You never know.

I always check the silverware and platters at thrift stores and yard sales but I've never found any real silver. NICE score!

WOW that is outrageous. Surprisingly I still have not found a set of sterling silverware at a tag sale. I go to a LOT of them.
