Purchasing information-
Appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying some tarnishing and expected surface wear, marks, scratches and nicks in keeping with the age and use. Some slightly heavier wear around the edge of the spoon bowl but it has generally faired well. Hallmarks bottom struck and are clear and legible with some light rubbing. Maker's mark could be for James Bell (1824..1832) but punch is a different shape.
